but how about the chrome trimming of the spindle shape grille ? Are we suppose to paint it chrome ? shouldn't there be a seperate chrome piece that attaches to the bumper ?

and will they be compatible with USDM front end front bumper absorbers ?

Cool - OK

anyone know where I can get the headlights harness? Doing the upgrade but can't find the headlights harness. My car is an 2007. If anyone know a place I can get one that would be greatly appreciated.

Any luck with this conversion? Was wondering if it's possible to retain the radar cruise control and have the conversion bumper installed. Black on black it looks really good and it should make the panel gap seem invisible if that's the only option available. Would love to hear from anyone who has had experience with this. Really looks good blacked out. Thank you for your time.

The radar cruise control module is behind the Lexus emblem on the grill, not anything in the bumper.

The one listed on central pine states it comes with an emblem. I'm assuming you have to use the provided emblem to complete the look but the existing emblem is outfitted with the radar sensor.
