Hmmm... The new TC grill is nice but I think the vertical grill looks better. Sorry, but that's just my opinion. I like the way the Lexus logo stands out better on the vertical grill but the chrome is nice too.

Hey anybody try the RX400H Grille? They are horizontal slats, but no chromein the middle. It has a bigger "L" on it. I wonder if we chrome the horizontal slats on an RX400H, would it look good? There's a kit you can buy (or else look for the chrome clips). I also believe all of our grilles are chrome based and then painted. Hence you see a ton of chromed out RX grilles. A lot of Paint stripper and kwala, you have chrome grilles!!!!

The TC grille is much better if you want to go chrome.

Installed a Thundercloud grill on my 2008 RX-350 today. First, I would like to say that I ordered the grill late Monday night (July 9) from Sewell Lexus and it was delivered this morning (July 11), to say the least I was impressed.
I think I will like it okay, the biggest surprise is that the grill is designed for 2007 and earlier, while it fits fine the corners are different and overall size is smaller than the 2008 grill. It was very easy to install, it took about 10 minutes, the instruction are in Japanese, luckily it is so easy you do not need to read them.

Crystal RX - that grille is gorgeous. I love it for two reasons - the chrome, and even better, the lack of the "L" in the center. That's one grille that would make me sell my TC one, which I definitely prefer over stock.
ehizon - two vendors on the the site carry the grille - www.l-tunedparts.com and www.lexus-parts.com. I've bought parts from both and they're great. However, if you're price-shopping it might be worth including www.irontoad.com in the mix.
