I did a thang - partial vinyl wrap....

[re_guderian]

We were originally looking for a black and tan GX, like our first 100 series. Fell into a good deal on a white '11, and the wife agreed, but wanted to customize it. So here we are.. Front bumper going on soon ("soon"relative to current production lead times...). I've never wrapped a car before, and I'm totally comfortable not letting this be a deterrent to desert pinstriping, etc. I painted the OEM roof rack before the wrap.

All you need is some police badging on the doors, front bumper guard and a light bar!

It's a Range Rover

Right? Or a RAV4, or Bronco, or Jeep, or even this RX sitting on the dealer lot...

Thats not that bad, maybe wrap the chrome on the door handles too? I was thinking of wrapping the roof myself but didn’t get around to doing it before the rack install.

Looks cool
You still have room to add side vinyls as well.

I like it. A lot actually. Now get the f sport grille and paint/wrap the chrome trim black!

All blacked out with the F sport grille would look awesome!

I picked up an F sport grill from Bell Lexus Saturday afternoon, but when I opened the box, it was broken... Will have to wait to resolve, and black out the chrome grill surround. Trying to decide on Plasti-Dip v spray on vinyl, or regular ol' paint for the gill surround.

I would probably avoid paint unless you're very malicious about prepping otherwise you'll wind up with the paint chipping from road debris.
But that's me, you may want to look up reviews on the various products and hear from real end users and not some guy spouting off (myself...) on what I think.

On my 100 series TJM T-3, it had a chrome hoop. I put spray-on bedliner on that. It did chip with road debris. But it was easy to touch up. It looked like crap, but it was easy!

New grill in the mail. Bell Lexus has been good to deal with.

Holy crap, major shout out to Bell Lexus! I sent them an email Saturday after close of business about the broken grill I had picked up earlier that day about an hour before they closed. Called them Monday (yesterday) at noon, and by 9:30AM this morning, there was a new grill at my doorstep! It helps that I'm only 30 miles away, but still!!! AND they took it out of the box, inspected it, and bubble wrapped it prior to shipment, which, inexplicably, Lexus doesn't do. I mean my OEM roof rack cross bars came wrapped in custom-cut, and sealed (not just plan ol' packing tape) bubble wrap. Apparently standard packaging for grills is a plastic bag in a box. But anyway, GREAT customer service from Bell Lexus in Scottsdale!

Got the F-Sport grill on, as well as blacking out the OEM roof rack end caps. Going to hold off on blacking out the trim until the front bumper goes on.

Didn't know the F-Sport would work on pre-2014 rigs. Or did you trim to fit?
Also, maybe on a sunnier day, can you do a couple more photos of the front grill?
The photo you posted does not show any detail. It just looks like a solid black grill.

I've got a 2013 with F-Sport grille, rims, and floor mats.
It came with all that stuff, so I don't think modifications were needed to install.

I looked and I don't have a pic of the front, but here's a summary from 2012.
