I like it: elements of earlier F Sport and later front end grille designs.
Fitment doesn't look so good on the one side.

Other than worrying about the fitment like what everyone is saying, i'd also worry about if you have parking sensors or the headlight washer. I'd say if you're going to do something, do it right and just get the aimgain one. The quality would be much nicer and will save you a lot of headaches from fitment issues compared to ebay parts.

I really like that style to give the upgraded look (its closer to the GS F than it is to the 2016+ F Sport). The AIMGAIN VIP one (https://www.clublexus.com/forums/cl-...s-for-4gs-284/) comes with cutouts in the side mesh for fog lights which i'm not a fan of...
This eBay one looks a bit cleaner but if you have existing Fog lamps, i'm not sure how you would install it or remove the fogs maybe? Also, the pics on eBay don't show any areasfor the parking sensors so that may be an issue as previously mentioned.
Also, ask the seller if its made of fiberglass (which has a higher risk of breaking).

I mean Aimgain quoted me $4K landed vs an eBay one for $800... I think that is a HELL of a bumper and might even get it and make the cutouts for the headlight washers myself.

Just realized they also have the bumper available without the grilles for $599 (but the one you posted with the grilles included is def. the better deal): https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fits-13-15-...item5b4a5858b7
If I had a driveway I would buy the bumper, test fit it myself and post pictures here., so we would all know.
If someone else wants to try, eBay has a 100% money back guarantee if the item is not as described or doesn't fit like in the pictures. Worst case they provide a return label for all your money back.
So why wants to buy and test fit this bumper for us?

Correct, only when the headlights are on will they spray. If you only have DRLs or in AUTO (and they are off), the headlight washer will not operate.

Aimgain would be a good choice. But fibreglass is a pain to work with if anything does happen. As long as fitment is good and you really like it, I don't see why not.
