What Dave said is true, your best bet is to buy it unpainted, install it and paint the entire bumper, even then your hood and fenders won't match, your paint is a 3 stage and has to be blended to match, if your front end needs a repaint now is the time.

i just had the front bumper, both fenders and the hood done like 6 months ago... they didnt even blend into the doors i dont think and it matches perfectly..hopefully this is new enough to come close to the new paint on the tte.

Well take it from me Have the Body shop paint it.. There was a delay on my TTE,lip when i ordered it.. The guys at lexus-parts had to repaint it.. But when i got it it was fine along with my painted roof spoiler. I had the TTE lip painted twice because i had a shop mold the lip so they they had to repaint it to match and so forth. I also had my Hood, fenders and grille painted to match.. Good Luck.. I thought i could just get away with doing the front bumper but it was worth getting everything else painted to match.
Good luck..Tony

As a confirmation, the wheel set (2 front and 2 rear wheels) at the $448 price will in fact fit the 1997 to 2000 model year LS400's.
