Cracked grill on IS300H (2014)

[Damo87]

Hi everyone, 

Can anyone advise where I can get new front grill for IS300H 2014 executive, please? I just noticed that it is cracked and I have no idea how this happend! Also, do I need to take the bumper off to fit this? If so how difficult is it?

Many Thanks

Hi, taking the front bumper off is pretty straightforward, do a search on YouTube as there is a video on there which is easy to follow. Took me about 10mins to remove mine. You don't even need to get the car up on a ramp. My lower grill panel had to be removed as for some reason it hadn't been put back correctly and some of the tabs had not been pushed into the right place. This was affecting my parking sensors. While the bumper was off it also gave me the opportunity to give the front a clean. Have a look on eBay for a replacement grill. Normally there are a few parts floating around on there.

Wich part of the grille is cracked? The front grille is about 7 pieces all clipped together and can be purchased individually. I've replaced mine as it was mangled with the rest of the car! 

The lower part is available after market and not dear even from Lexus. The rest is over 100 each piece. 

Theres a crowd in lithunia sell them but fit isn't perfect.

Thanks Gents, it has actually cracked where the badge emblem is... I've been looking for the grille but can't find one on eBay... do you know where I can get the new one from and at what price? Thanks

Just a stab in the dark, but maybe try Lexus ?

Thanks a lot! I didn't know that IS250/350 and 300H share the same grille.
