Giant grilles and light bars; the default styling ‘signatures’ of every new car launched today. Of course if every car has them then they’re not signatures at all.
Lexus have adopted these styling defaults as much as anyone, but – to TLCB at least – Lexus’ efforts do look rather good. Especially when compared to certain other premium car makers…
Adopting both the giant grille and light bar is the recently refreshed Lexus IS, which has been recreated brilliantly here by Flickr’s SP_LINEUP. The ingenious building techniques probably mean SP’s model isn’t quite as robustly made as the real thing, but you can’t argue with the visual accuracy.
There’s more to see of SP’s giant grille and light bar (and the Lexus IS F-Sport they’re attached to) at his photostream via the link.



HI – is there a place to buy parts to gift someone with a 2025 Lexus IS 500 F Sport, Iridium exterior colour? Thanks.
Hello Sandra
Thanks for your message.
A website called Bricklink is widely used to purchase LEGO pieces.
To find out which pieces this model uses, we recommend making contact with the builder to see if they can assist you.
Whilst the link in the text to the exact model no longer works it does still take you to this builder’s Flickr account, where you may be able to message them directly or find further links and contact details.
Good luck!
TLCB Team
