So the wife drove the car.... Now i need a front grille. Nice!
I've tried searching but was not able to find the part number.
Need the front grill for 2017 Lexus Is200T F-SPORT
Any help would be appreciated.
^^^ yea I noticed that from browsing a few pictures as well just now. I cant seem to find a part number anywhere for the 2017 grille though. OP may need to call the dealership to get a part number. Deleted the links I posted so no one gets confused.
It's so minor, if you're crafty, you can probably snip some here and glue some there and grind down that plastic part on the bottom and touch it up. Would hardly notice. That grill is probably pricey.

+1 -- that's so minor and so easily fixed. Save the money for another adventure!

Just to confirm the damage in the photos...I can see:
1. paint damage to the leading edge of the bumper
2. scuff-like damage to the leading edge of the grill surround
3. several large wave-like cracks in the trim nearer to the mesh grill
I'm not sure if everyone is seeing the wave-like cracks...or it is my imagination?
Realistically if the damage is as indicated above, the option with the trim piece is to leave it or replace it...ain't nothing gonna hide those cracks.

i don't see any "wave-like" cracks in the trim nearest the mesh grille. not saying they aren't there, but i don't see them. they might be so inconspicuous so as not to notice them, or the car might just be too dirty to tell.
anyhow, for the small crack in the mesh grille, get fixing it and when you're done, if you aren't satisfied with your work then go ahead and purchase new components.
These are the wave-like cracks I was referring to:
It looks like the impact caused the trim finish to almost shatter or spiderweb (see box-like outline).
Not to mention the mesh grill is also broken about an inch above (see arrow).

i saw the broken grill and i also saw what you are referring to in the box-like outline. i'd really have to see the car cleaned up a bit. i mean, i don't think that i would have the entire grille and grille surround replaced for that amount of damage, but that's just me. i'd do my best to fix the broken grille and that's that.

+1 I agree, but I'm also sure it'll bother him till he gets it fixed. OP should look online at salvage yard inventories and if a 2017 200t shows up he can call and ask how much for the part and to ship it.

I don't think those are cracks. Car is just very dirty for being parked outside.
This weekend I will be washing the car and attempting to glue the grill for a temporary fix until I find a replacement..
Thanks for all the reply's.

Post up some pictures of the repair and how it looks once you finish so we can see as well!
Washed and cleaned off the car as best as I could. Black trim has scuff that I cant do anything about. I glued the grill back as best as i could. And bumper was not damaged thanks to my clear wrap. Clear wrap was well worth the money.
Looks good as new. Maybe peel off that section of the clear bra so there's no black stuff. or get some scratch x 2.0 and polish the clear film. the black stuff should come off.
