- It's just what the title says - I had to modify the emblem opening in the 2020 front grille in order to install the 2014-2019 Lexus emblem. The reason why I did this instead of just buying a 2020 emblem is that the dealer charges $300 for the OEM emblem. The cover page is what the original 2020 emblem opening looks like before I trimmed all the plastic off.
Bob can you make a video doing a full. Walk around of how your vehicle looks with the new grill thank you
I just posted a video of the front grille walkaround. Enjoy.
Now I know Exactly what to do with my 2015 GX460, thanks Bob! I’ll show the pics when im done.
Excellent! Thanks.
Did you use the 2015 emblem
Awesome job and info. Just ordered from Bell Lexus, thanks to you!
Saweeeeet, make sure you send me some pics and let me know if it was easy for you too!
Wow! You snapped! Now I’m going to purchase everything thanks!!
It was bound to happen eventually....(=
Thank you 🙏
Had a question I have a 2015 luxury model. Are there differences in emblems between the luxury models with crash detection. I'm looking to change mine with a pearl black emblems. But I have seen them listed on ebay and they say with out crash detection in the listing. Thanks for your videos the best 460 videos I seen.
looks nice. but the gap is noticeable around the emblem. great job nonetheless. keep it coming
Very unnoticeable though and i save a bunch of money by reusing an older emblem.
BOB,
At it again... Great job, showing people whom want to do this R & R.. Makes me very tempted. Let me ask you a question, did the dealer's Parts department give you grief regarding the purchase of the grill? I know anytime I go to the dealership they want to know what my VIN number is, etc... Meaning, as If I have to have that particular M.Y. Lexus..
Absolutely not! I made the entire purchase online without any human interaction. The purchase was made out of state at Bell Lexus in Arizona because NO TAX and they had a promotion of $22 for shipping due to Covid-19. I think the promotion ends on July 31. I would double-check. You have to buy 2 parts: The top grille part # 5310160G30 for $542 and the lower grille part # 5311260340 for $139. NO TAX and super cheap shipping if you use the coded SHIPLEXUS by July 31.
You can use your old emblem or go on eBay and buy a new emblem for around $50, part # 53141-60090.

DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT !!!
@@GXBOB Awesome! I am going to do this FOR SURE! Thanks!
@@GXBOB Awesome!! Thank You, Sir!! 👍
do you know if they make a Lighted Lexus LED logo badge for a 2012 gx460?
i really never looked into that steve but at the same time, i'm thinking that would look pretty cheezy in my opinion.
I love the 4 runner trd grill but this makes me want the gx instead will look boss all blacked out
I totally agree. This grille looks very aggressive.
Thank you very much for your video!!! Bob!
How about mounting a license plate? how did you install it in your new grill?
I chose not to install the front license plate. It looks ugly. I"m going to have to deal with the fix it ticket if it comes to that. Crossing my fingers.
I'm assuming your GX has the pre-crash system? I just bought a GX with a cloudy emblem (has pre-crash) and trying to figure out how to clean/swap it without paying $300 to the dealer..
My GX is bareboned with absolutely nothing. Base model with no parking sensor or cameras or any bells and whistles. I preferred it this way since i was going to do a lot of stuff on it myself. As far as the emblems, the 2017 fit directly into the 2021 grill with some bit of trimming. Nothing major.
Hey Bob, I want to install a light up emblem on my Gx. Do you think you could do a video on that or some guidance?
👍🗽
what about the
new headlights
What did u mean Kam? Are you asking am i going to replace the headllamps to the new 2020? Most likely not, 2 headlamp assemblies is a lot more than what i want to spend especially when the 2014-2019 headlamps look fairly nice already.
There no radar cruise control behind emblem?
I have the base model so the answer is no
that logo definitely doesn't fit there, I did mine and I wish I didn't ruine the bumper, bottom part doesn't snap into that clip, there is big gap visible and top part has logo plastic visible from top, buying new logo is must unless you want weirdly looking emblem that doesn't sit properly
Peter, you’re taking a different year part and installing it on a completely different grill. Of course it’s not going to fit. The point is to modify to make it fit to the best of your ability to save money. I rather not worry about some gaps then to go buy a 2021 emblem.
great but I wish you would've showed how you cut the plastic. very important step. do you happen to have that?
Eric. It's really straight forward. Id you look at the pattern of precut emblem vs the post cut emblem, it outlines where the cut should be made. There is no right or wrong way to use the cutting tool as ong as you get the angle you need to make the cut.
I think it should have used grinder when bumper was removed, its easier from inside to cut it.
i think it really comes down to preference whether you choose to attack from the inside or outside. I had a better view of the lines to cut from the outside plus i had a better angle to cut from.
It beautiful thank you 👍. I’m like to upgrade my too.
So, how much is the new headlight assembly? Without the new headlights, that thing looks funny.
I think it's more perspective. I actually think it's a really nice setup.
I plan on doing this as well, let me ask you a question for pendejos, to fit the old emblem, did you trim the grill emblem housing or the emblem itself?!
I trimmed the housing.
@@GXBOB that's what I wanted to know thanks Mr GX savant!
Thanks for posting. I have a 2016. Do the 2016 lights fit with the 2020 grill?
The lights have absolutely nothing to do with the grille. The hourglass insert is the same shape from 2014-2020. Remember, you are not changing out the bumper. You are only removing the center grill within the hourglass frame.
BOB thanks! Now I get it.
My Gx is the Lux. trim as such have sensors on the glass Lexus emblem. If I change the grill do will it require recalibration of the sensors and front view camera?
@@eketony That's an excellent question, Anthony, but I feel that question will get better answers in the Lexus Forums. Personally, I can't give you any examples or test trials because I don't own the higher models.
Great video brother
Hey Bob. Does the 2020 grill have provisions for the Driver Support Package features like the front camera and the Dynamic Radar Cruise sensor?

Hey Jordan , there are more people that can help u with your question on the link i just sent you. I am not able to answer that since i don’t have those options.
how does the logo looks? can't tell it's not for that bumper right? I tried to order off eBay two different ones one for 50 another for 170 both came in fake and also doesn't fit. Will have to come also most likely
The best you can do is center it as much as possible. You can only notice the gaps if you really look for it. I have a small gap on top but its not noticeable at all.
Was just wondering if this would work the other way around. Can you put a grill from a 17 on a 20 or 21 gx?
Considering i had a gap when installing an old emblem to the new grille, i would assume the new emblem would be too large or a super tight fit for the old grille. I haven't tested it out but that poses an interesting mod.
Hello Mr Bob , how much you are paid for The Sport Front Grill
If you look at the body of the description, it itemizes the cost of each part i purchased.
Top Grille #5310160G30 = $542.38,
Bottom Grille #5311260340 = $139.93.
YOU NEED BOTH GRILLES TOP AND BOTTOM.
Lexus Emblem = Use your old one from 2016 with my other video.
I bought both top and bottom grille at Bell Lexus in Scottsdale, Arizona because of No Tax and Free Shipping promotion going on till the end of August 2020. I did not purchase an emblem because the cost was upwards of $300 for an OEM 2020 Lexus (which is ridiculous).
When you put the emblem, did the bottom tab clip in and hold securly or does it come off...did mine today and it doesn't seem to hold in
Mine did. Use a little bit of hot glue gun plus I wouldn't be to worried as the top 2 screws are pretty secure.
does it fill that logo spot completely? looks there is some space on lower side.
You won't get an exact fit but at least you have the ability to center it as you tighten in the screws. The gaps are not noticeable at all. Unless you have OCD, then God help you.
just did mine, does it seems to me or it have way too wide opening between hood and grill part. It feels gap is too wide. I installed everything properly.
same here. I have a gap too but it didn't bother me as much. I looked at the overall improvement and disregarded the gap.
@@GXBOB actually no, I realized I forgot to move that rubber sealing, on it, there is absolutely no gap now.
What’s the pet number for the 2020 o e m emblem
Hey Ed , currently on vacation on a cruise ship somewhere in the Pacific. Your best bet is to reach out to Bell Lexus parts dept in Arizona. They helped out with my entire setup. Really cool people.
What about the front camera 📷 ?!?!
I don't think his GX had it to begin with, due to also not having the LED Fogs.. Just a hunch though, I could be wrong.
My model didn't come with front cameras...)=
@@GXBOB what do u think about it ? Hard to replace
@@mrshebli1984 Super easy. Probably one of the easiest installs that improve the most for your car's value.
@@Kiss__Kiss You're right. My GX is the standard model without the bells and whistles.
Go buy 2020 a gx460 ...problem solved!
Currently working on it....but this damn state lottery is taking forever to win.
@@GXBOB haha
