Wrecked my LX470 :(

[goldie99]

Had a shop install it. My grill and lower trim piece is what is not installed properly. No issues with bumper.

Same here. And, the only issue is the lower trim piece as well. Not sure if it can be fitted more flush. I would post a pic, but back in the shop to try and fit new 285/70/17 tires installed yesterday that are rubbing inside fender (fronts only). No lift, AHC intact, but new bumper fit w/ side steps removed. Need to figure out how to shave off w/o screwing up anything.

Did whoever installed it trim the metal bracket under the headlights? If not it won’t sit back far enough and have some strange gaps. There will always be a small gap in the middle of the bumper.

According to TJM install instructions, there are 2 sets of spacers - 1 of which should be added if no wench. Mine installed w/ no wench, as they have been out of stock since forever. It is my understanding if added later, the bumper has to be removed again and re-installed (more $$$).

Thank you for the suggestion, I went ahead and placed my order for the TJM. 2-3 week lead time.
I was able to source a fender of the same color and have also received the suspension parts and headlamps. Headlamp trim pieces on order.
Off to a good start.

How do you like these headlights so far?

That's exactly where/what its pushed up against, more showing on one side than the other. Hoping I can take it back for them to modify, but they claimed it was a pain to install, and TJM didn't send the correct hardware, etc. Paid for 4 hours of labor, so I want it right. Thanks!
