Transferring over the OE bumper mounts. At first there was concern about the mounting flaps not having enough material to have complete holes but it was fine in the end.

My friend insisted that I get a photo of him working on the car. So I let him grind a few things off when fitting the fenders.

The cut outs for the head lights were very straight forward. Just cut some slots with a dremel while eyeballing and cutting in steps.

This is the only cutting of the headlight area that needed to be done in order to fit the lights. Retained all other bolt holes and mounts. Added an arch at the top to get the headlight level

Simple strip of aluminum and three bolts nuts were used to mount the headlights which retained OE adjusters from the Lexus making the simple mount possible.

Wired up! This was wired directly to the normal harness with spade connectors so reverting to flipping headlights is a snap.

Simple aluminum flashing was placed under the lenses to prevent the refracted sunlight from burning the bumper like a magnifying lens. Plus it looks cool. XD

My local shop Rotorsport was kind enough to just give me blue silicone hosing that was laying around when I went in to get a manifold gasket. Great guys! Wasn't really planning on making things look fancy but I guess that's what gonna happen! Going to be Replacing all the hoses because obviously it was all damaged in the engine fire.
