Default Saw a RX with a new GRILL today- never seen before
I saw a silver RX today that had a really nice looking grill. It wasn't the Thundercloud one either. What did I see and where can I get a pic and will it fit a 2006 model?

Perhaps it was a Pebble Beach model, or even a 400h.

If it was a silver RX doubt that it was a Pebble Beach edition - more than likely a 400h as they have a unique grill.

Default It looked like this one off a Harrier
but I'm not sure. It had a Lexus emblem obviously. Anyone seen anything similar to this in the US? It had the Lexus

That is coach edition JDM grille and sells for around $380 + shipping after CL discount. Will look really unique & nice if you get it

Here is how the Coach grill looks on a real world RX, Thanks to Member ID: sharpener on cardomain.com

Looks elegant, sporty , unique & really nice

is it just me or does anyone notice a difference in the grill from Sewel (first picture) and the grill in the real world (2nd picture)? The first one looks like its bumpy or has 3 sections and the 2nd one looks like one smooth piece.. am i seeing things??

I am not sure I like that one better than this one . Especially for the extra cash.

nice idea though.
What color is that Coach grill? Is it black or smoked looking?
