Just back from the body shop. I had 2 bad dings on the hood that had to be repainted. I figured that I would change the grill and debadge also. The grill is from Carson Toyota but it look just like the RMM grill that I had on my 2nd gen.



I love the "smooth booty" look. I'm not trying to fool anybody to think that I have something different than I do. Only true enthusiast know the difference anyway. Most average people think that Lexus only makes two models, the fancy Camry and the one that parks itself.

 

You don't like the Billet chrome grill ? That grill just seems way to plain ? I do like the Clear headlights, smoked out DL lights and the yellow fog lights... Where did you get them from ?
Did you also paint the rear lip to match your car ? Looks smooth

 

NOOOOOOOOO. Billet chrome grill is too Chrysler 300 for me. The only thing that I did to the lights is to have yellow tint added to the fog lights. The shadow of the garage makes it look smoked out in that picture.

 

I like that grill. I agree with you, the chrome grill doesn't belong, but different strokes for different folks. I figured I would continue the saying

Looks sporty. I do like. Thanks for the pics.

EDIT: I like the chrome grill on white cars only!

 

Very nice. Looks sporty without the chrome grill trim.

 

your car sure is clean seem like a lot of lexus owners like to put more chrome on the car, i like the way you mod, i removed every single chrome piece on my old car and seems like this is something that has yet to be attempted on a lexus.

 

I really like it on that color too, really sweet lines and truly clean!! Well done!

 

That looks awesome. Sort of reminds me of the L-Tuned grill I had on my 2nd gen GS...minus the emblem

 

Definitely looks good. I like how it looks a bit more sporty. Is that the Tanabe Medallion exhaust?

 

+1 on that being a good change. definitely like the look of that.

 

I always thought that Carson grille was ugly, but it looks pretty nice. I guess I'm really use to the chrome stock grille.

 

Please NO! chrome kills!!

I like its sporty look. Really nice cosmetic piece. By the way KayGee, my 4080 is in, now you just show me this new grille and get me thinking again

 

very nice, done liking it a lot

 

can you take a pic from a good distance away, instead of up close....?

 

thanks for the picture of the carson grill I was about to get it but wanted to get sometime aggresive this one is a bit tpp plain........
