If this is plug and play, i'd definitely be interested. Also curious about the parking sensors though, they don't seem to have any cut outs for them

I messaged them and they said they don't have a bumper with the opening for the parking sensors. I don't think it would be too hard to mark the bumper holes and drill them. If you get the OEM grill it will have the holes for the center sensors.

Don't think it would be too hard to line up the washers and use the existing caps to draw the outlines.

If this is a replica of the GSF for the early models then I assume that only the OEM GSF grill would fit according to how different the grills look compared to the gs350. On another thread OEM GSF grill is said to be very expensive and looks like sensor locations are not on the grill according to that thread. Getting this bumper with their grill is probably cheapest.

Looks great, hopefully the test fit is good.

Do you plan on drilling the holes for the parking sensors?

Right now I’m not sure. They don’t just press together. There are tabs on the back that hold the actual sensor in place. I have a spare bumper I might drill and see what I can come up with..we’ll see...
