Default Aftermarket Grill ?

Hello all,


Does anyone know of any aftermarket grill for the SC430 other than the blitz version? From looking around I do not see any ?


Thanks.

Thanks. I actually have my grill the way you have it by removing the emblem. Though I do get a little bored of it and want to know if any other company makes a custom grill for sc430 owners. Seems like we are the least favorite in terms of lexus models that companies want to invest in aftermarket accessories

Yeah, we have limited mods and customization opportunities. A lot of our best mods have come by exploration though! Maybe painting the grill or finding another car's grill that would fit or something might be work exploring if you hate it that much.

IMO the lights have a much bigger upside to them by changing to some of these options and truly can make a dramatic effect:

And look at KaiserSea1's car too:

IMO with the painted headlights, de-badge the front grill (or paint) and maybe do some specialty lighting inside the housings and a front lip-you've got a transformation Optimus Prime would be jealous of!

Well, just called Carson Toyota (l-tunedparts.com) and they told me that yes the ONLY aftermarket grill is the blitz grill.

WHY DOES OUR CARS GET *ZERO* LOVE FROM AFTERMARKET COMPANIES ?!
