F-Sport grille fit on non-F Sport?
#122
For those that have done this conversion - rather than start a new thread...
do you know how to remove the shroud/trim that is around the fog lights? can it be removed without taking the bumper off?
Was thinking about putting laminix over the fogs

No, you'll have to remove the screw on the back side of the trim. It's also easier just to remove the entire foglight from inside the bumper to apply the laminx. That's what I did.

Anyone know the answer to this question? I would like to know too. Any insight would be much appreciated.

If if you look closely at the bottom of the grill on both the L models and F-Sport, you’ll notice that they don’t meet at the same locations; thus, they need to be used together to fit properly.

No it’s not possible (without heavy modifications) to just add only the splitter and not the grill. Vis-à-vis is true as well; you can’t put the grill without the splitter.

Actually, I'm almost certain that you can, I looked into this a while back, but the parts aren't cheap (which is why I never did it).
I don't remember the part numbers, but the bottom piece of the grill surround is a separate piece, which is why it looks like it's attached at a different point. Non Fsport has a bottom trim piece to complete the hour glass grill surround, while the Fsport grill bottom attaches directly to the front lip.
There are 3 main pieces (which adds up to something like $800-$1000). The lip itself, a second piece which attaches to the bottom of the lip, and a piece that was called something like bumper support (not an actual bumper support, but I think it's where that bottom piece attaches to. Have to look at the diagrams again to remember. Then there are 2 smaller pieces at the corner of where the lip meets the grill.
I thought about just getting the lip without the bottom piece and see if that will fit, not sure if it'll work like that though.

Hi! Found this on eBay for those who are interested. Looks like it is only 2 pieces like rufetus showed.

Can someone please HELP.
I have a 2016 ~ RX350 non F-Sport. I was involved in accident and the body repair shop said they would change out my regular grille to the F-sport Grille during the repair. Body shop ordered
1 lexus grille but the holes for the distance sensor / park sensor and front camera did not match up with the ones on my vehicle. Local dealership said I need a vin # from a f-sport with the same camera / sensor options as my car for them to be able to tell me the right part #.
Can anyone in this group tell me the right grille part # for a RX with these sensors / camera. I hate to miss out on getting the F sport grille.
Any help greatly appreciated!

You'll need the lower lip and all the other associated parts as well. The f-sport grill will not join properly with the base/L lower trim.
I believe the f-sport grill with the parking sensors and camera cutout is: 53111-0E200. Double check though.

I'm pretty sure it'll work. A surefire way to check is to see if the grill and lower chrome trim on the 2018 model matches the part number on the non-fsport models.

re: anybody tried this out yet? (finished!)
So took about 2-3 hours to install, all thats needed is a dremel. Thanks to GIOVANE, who's diagrams got me through this. total cost: ~$570. Notice lower lip is still base (non-Fsport). (System is not letting me upload photo, but looks almost exactly like BrianZX7s).

Ive been getting PM asking about the non f sport grill with f sport lip. The combination is not possible. The non f sport grill isnt long enough to connect to the f sport lower spoiler. You have to buy the f sport grill if you want the f sport lower spoiler. It cost $1300 usd to replace everything, including all the necessary hardware.
