Grille options
Checklist of Toyota parts needed for grille replacement from Matt's detailed thread:
53149-48050 (Gasket, Grille) - most expensive part if missing
90467-10190 (Grille plastic center clip that locates it) - Matt's wasn't broken. Mine's missing.
90109-05092 x2 (Stud, Bottom M5 - 0.8) - This part number is for a Lexus ES; on the RX, Lexus only offers them as a package with a brand new grille. You also need these for the lower tabs to adapt a 330 grille to a newer RX if your new grille doesn't come with it.
90109-05103 x3 (Bolt, Top M8 - 1.25 in, M5 - 0.8 out) - Top larger stud/nut combo that hold the grille in. These can be substituted for a 10mm or 12mm long M8-1.25 bolt, or can be screwed into the new grille while saving the old nuts. This is also an ES part.
90080-17202 x5 (Nut M5 - 0.8) - Nuts that hold the grille to the hood.
Felix said he also installed washers under the nuts.

So it turns out that the grille (
) came with gasket and the clip! Just need the bolts and nuts. There is no extra space for a washer with the original bolts and nuts.
Super easy to install. The gasket was already installed on the grille. It is a harder plastic than the original gasket, and is slightly visible around the edge, but I'm happy with it for the price and ease of installation.
