Give me 2-3 more weeks. I'm working on it right now. I already send one sample bezel(98-00) to the chrome company and I just call them up and they said they can do it. Now, I'm waiting for them to finish it up and send it back to me. The price is around $50.00 because I have to buy the 98 bezel from Lexus and shipped it to them and they shipped back to me. I will post an update within 2-3 weeks. Turn around time is about 4 weeks.

Thanks man! Yeah, it sinks in on the top right a little bit. With other people's I've seen it sink in on the top left. Bitkahuna had a good write-up on improving the fitment of the grill though.

It doesn't bother me one bit. Nobody notices it, and I pretty much forgot about it as well.

Much better look than the stock grill. I hope Lexus adopts this one on the new GS

Default Looking good!

Brendan – grille looks great! BTW, the “L” that came with the grille is apparently the same one I just bought (separately) from Steve at Carson for my new TTE grille. Interesting thing is that it comes packaged in a plastic baggie labeled “Emblem, Luggage” and it’s self-adhesive on the back. The one that came with the RMM was packaged and labeled the same. In case anyone else needs one – just order part 75431-30220.

I’m jealous of the chrome bezel though – I’d like to have one myself.

garnet -- I just ended up using 3M automotive tape. Had to dip the emblem in rubbing alcohol once I got it off the grill since it still had some "adhesive residue" -- worked well!

Emblem doesn't wobble for me, but if I push on it, there's a little play. May end up using some epoxy to make it perminant ... well, I may also just buy an emblem from Carson Toyota and paste it on there.

I'm rambling ...
