Car Act grill? Anyone try it?
Anyone try the LS style car act grill? Quality seems nice from photos. only thing i'd worry about is the radar sensor re-installing fine. I don't see why it wouldn't, unless unplugging it does something to it.
Every time I look at the ES grill, I think of teeth. mistake orienting the slats vertically. you can't look at it without thinking of a monster opening its mouth.
The LS style grill looks way better.. a bit pricy to have it shipped from China but i think i'll take the chance. Wondering if anyone installed one.

The F Sport is more of a sideways diamond pattern that's uniform and the LS style is the new lexus corporate spindle grille with the dynamic vertical diamonds that progressively sweep and flow out to the edges. Both are offered for the ES by aftermarket chinse company in black, F sport gray, or chrome. i wouldn't mind getting the F Sport one either but it's probably too sporty for the character of the non sport.
It's more luxury vs sport i guess. you can google a pic of the LS.

Thanks. We are enjoying it so far, except for the three hours I had to endure at the DMV this morning...
Sure is different from the NX. Ride and noise level is more on par with the ES - and I can't help but love the power of that V6 based hybrid. It is a good combination for us, as I like "more power" and my wife likes "more MPGs."

Decided to hold off on it right now. I asked for a discount they declined. So not too motivated. Shipping is $120 so kind of a hard pill to swallow for something that may not fit well or last that long.
