Stock Grille? Not mine
I was looking through some pictures and i saw the some people dont have the Lexus emblem on what appears to be the stock grille. so after taking mine off i have a large mounting bump that would be noticeable where the emblem is.
Is this an aftermarket grille? is my 02 different? the thing on mine is noticeable and i dont see it here.
This is what mine has:

That is a stock grill. The only thing that should be there is a small silver tab. You cant really see it unless you look at it real good.

I believe some people grind it off and paint the area.
