Default stock front bumper question

hi, i'm sure this has been covered but i've been doing tons of searching and am more confused now then before.
i have a 2011 that had a banged up front bumper so i went ahead and purchased a used bumper. i also wanted to find a front lip but it was very difficult finding one for a 11+ so i ended up going with the F-sport lip. well i know toyota/lexus usually has marking on the back where you would cut out for a factory lip kit (if offered) but did not see any on this bumper. seller told me it would fit an 11 but i just noticed on the tag that it says it came from a 09.
this is whats confusing me, it does not have the cut out marks but looks like a 11+ bumper. any advice here? i know the bumper was different 06-08 but after that it gets a little confusing to me.
any help would be great.
also, part number on the bumper is 52119-53400 if it helps.

what adds to the confusion is when searching for lips some say 06-08, 09-10, 11+

Post pictures of it. It's sounding like you bought an 09. on the back of the 11+ there will be little indents of where to cut for the Fsport lips

Fog lights are biggest indicators. 09-10 use same fogs as 06-08. 11+ use the newer universal Toyota fogs.

this is normal due to the two facelifts. So you without a doubt need a 2011+ front lip to fit your 2011+ bumper.
