Hey guys, I've noticed this for awhile now. Is it an issue all around or is it just me? The front bumper is sagging just below my headlights on both sides. I looked at diagrams to see where the bolts are holding the bumper on and they all seem to be in the right place. If I push up from the bottom of the bumper it lines back up. Any suggestions on what I can do to fix it? I know it's not really noticeable but I see it first thing every time.

are you missing any of the bolts form the bottom?
maybe the clips on the sides aren't holding anymore or they're just not clipped.
when I took off my bumper, that was the hardest part about putting it back on... lining the clips up on the driver side after getting the passenger side in.

yeah it most common problem on the 06-08 ISs, I got that on my driver too
I did try everything to fit that, and I figure out why it like that, it the way the the bumper and the underneath engine cover not perfectly made, when I took the bumper off and reinstalled it, if I do the bumper align up perfect with no gap and it run into another problem is underneath the engine cover not into the place where the bumper and that cover clip in, there is two solution is one you can drill the hole underneath the engine cover to line up with the bumper to able clip and bolts on, or pull the bumper down to clip in the right place it was, it will create the gap like you have
one way or another
which it suck design for lexus, look like every year they having different problem, I am thing to trade my IS in too

This was a common problem with the 97-01 preludes also and the solution people did was put washers on the bumper bar. I'm not sure if it applies here though.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I guess if it bugs me a lot more I may think about taking off the bumper and trying the washer idea but it's a little to much work to hope it works right now.
