F-Sport front bumper retrofit

F-Sport front bumper retrofit
Hi Everyone,
I just picked up RX350 H Luxury and everything is great, except I'm not too fond of the front and rear bumper. The question I have is....is it possible to do a retrofit of the front and rear bumper using the F-Sport bumper from either the RX350/500? If so, would it be a direct replacement or would need additional parts or swap out parts to make this work? Any information would be greatly appreciated. I've made the same inquiry to Lexus parts department and a auto body shop that I use and both is unsure.

Should be a bolt in replacement but I have no idea if you’ll need more than the bumper cover. Rear cover will likely be the easier. Start watching the junk yards for bumper covers. You’re the first to talk about this but definitely will not be the last.
You might want to research if the 350 F Sport Handling and 500h F Sport Performance use the same parts for the bumper covers. If so you’ll probably find the swap won’t be too tough.

The 350 F-sport and 500h do use the same bumper covers etc, with the exception that the bumper corner trim on each corner is gloss black on the 500h and matte silver on the 350 F-sport. You will need the bumper covers, bumper corner trim and the mesh accent inserts on both the front and rear bumpers. All in, not sure that its really worth it as after parts, paint and install you'll be looking at thousands to of pocket (likely $3-4000 imo). But, if its worth it to you, than it is in fact worth it.
Did I read that the '25 line-up will include the F-Sport on the 350H as an option?
