Ive been contacting nigel jdm on getting the parts i need for this conversion but the email replies have been very long (up to a week apart) which makes me uncomfortable. He probably has alot going on. I am currently looking for an OEM parts website
for lexus so i can complete my order. I will do a full write up of install w/ pics.

Pics & a write up would be awesome!!! Maybe you can include who has the best price in the write up. I think I know the website you are talking about.

Default Removing brush aluminum trim

Do you need to remove the front bumper to remove the brush aluminum trim around the grill? I got 450h F Sport but want to wrap those brush aluminum trim to the same color as the rims. Also mine is carviar so those aluminum pieces don't fit well with the theme!

No i havent ordered them yet . Been waiting for my Vossens to come in but there was some mix up that cause about a month delay. I was planning on getting the Fsport grill after decending if I was gonna lower the car about an inch or not..... but I cant make that decision till i get the wheels on first.

What was the good solution? I just want to replace the mesh parts also but it looks like the bottom part of the lower mesh section will not fit the standard chrome trim.

I had the same experience with nigel. He stopped emailing me so i gave up. I understand that he is in japan and ships the parts to the US. Shipping can be very expensive so it might be more cost effective to buy the parts from your local dealer.

I would like to just replace the two grill sections with the mesh F sport sections. Not sure if that is possible.

Hey guys.

Just received all my parts from Nigel. Best to get everything through him unless you have a really helpful parts guys. I compiled a list of all the part he shipped minus the license holder (13 items in total). A lot of the parts are discontinued or only available on websites outside the USA. He didn't ship any of the hardware, clips or nuts and bolts. I am probably going to order those separately or see if I can reuse them. Good luck!!

Top grill - no camera or sensor - 53111-0E170
Lower Grills (53155D) - 53155-0E010
Lower chrome trim (53122E) - 53122-0E070
Lower Lip Suport (52117D) - 52117-0E010
Lower Spoiler (52112) - 52112-0E010
Left trim (53286) - 53286-48020
Right trim (53285)- 53285-48030
Lower left support (52116A) - 52116-48100
Lower right support (52115A) - 52115-48120
Right Chrome Trim (53123C) - 53123-48030
Left Chrome Trim (53124D) - 53124-48040
Left grill cover (52128) - 52128-48110
Right grill cover (52127) - 52127-48140

1) For the 'Top grill - no camera or sensor - 53111-0E170' depending on the model it would be different for us, but would you mind snapping of front pic of the part for us?

2) Also, for 'Lower Grills (53155D) - 53155-0E010' would you be able to snap some pics of the packaging for the lower grille label? (pics of any of the packages would be helpful too) because there are two versions of this available (crafted vs no crafted line).

I was wondering what 'w/ crafted line' and 'w/o crafted line' means.
