Default Chrome grill trim

I am the 2nd owner of my 2017 GS 350 F Sport with a small front grill problem. The previous owner must have clipped something causing the chrome to start peeling on the driver side. I’ve noticed the trim piece is 3 separate pieces but can’t figure out how to remove the existing piece to replace. My local Lexus dealership has the piece needed for $70-$80 but need to know how to replace it. Can someone help me?

You need to remove the bumper to take that trim off. It’s going to be clipped into the bumper and probably some screws. Once you see the back side of the bumper it will become more like obvious what you have to do.

Is there any tutorials out there explaining how to remove the front bumper?

One of mine's not peeling but wrinkled looking - I already bought the part to replace but I feel like I need to get the F-Sport grille now too if i'm going to remove the front bumper lol
