Lexus GX 460 Modifications & Body Kits — Page 3

Lexus GX460 2009–2023 (J150 body) is most often tuned for two reasons: to refresh the look of an older body to match the current design, and to protect the interior and trunk from dirt. Vehicle-specific products include “Lexus GX460 2009-2023” in the name; the rest are universal. Don’t use Toyota Prado 150 as a reference: grilles, trims, crossbars, and side steps differ between these models, as they do between the previous and the next GX generations.

Three GX460 front-end designs: what fits your body

The GX460 front end was updated twice, and this determines what fits the factory mounting points:

• Up to 2013 — first design. Restyled headlights, grille, fog lights, and trims only fit together with the new front bumper; the rear bumper and tail lights are different too, so the new tail lights are installed together with the restyled rear bumper.
• 2013–2020 — facelift. To get the 2021 model look, it’s enough to replace the headlights and the radiator grille.
• 2021–2023 — the final design that the update parts are made for.

The “2013-2023” label in the product name is for the facelift body. If the vehicle has already been converted, choose parts based on the headlights and bumper actually installed, not the year in the documents—front-end photos are more reliable here than the VIN.

Restyling kits to the 2021 design

In the restyling kits section, there are two sets:

• Full kit for 2010–2013 body (GBT) — both bumpers, Full LED headlights with AFS, grille, fog lights, repeaters, reflectors, rear tail lights, trims, and mounting hardware; bumpers are supplied unpainted for painting.
• Kit for 2013–2019 body (1234 Upgrade) — headlights and radiator grille only, in dark graphite with a chrome surround.

Kit components are also available separately in the bumpers section—bumpers, Premium trims, diffusers, absorber, brackets, and retainers. Body parts are painted to match the vehicle color, but they should be test-fitted first so the panel gaps can be set before painting. If your vehicle has parking sensors or headlight washers, check the provisions for them in the new bumper in advance. The kit can be installed at the DD Tuning network of certified service centers—your manager will advise the nearest one. A new front end with the old rear looks less cohesive, so keep that in mind.

Headlights and tail lights

Among the front headlights are 2021–2023 design headlights (Full LED, with AFS), 2013–2020 headlights, and facelift fog lights. It’s best to have new headlights wired by an auto electrician: they will verify the connectors and AFS operation on your specific vehicle. Tail lights for the 2013–2023 body are available in several versions: OEM, Led-type, Dragon V1 and V2, BlackEdition V1 Plus with sequential turn signal. Headlights and tail lights are sold as a pair—one new lamp would differ from the old one in lens color and brightness.

Body, roof, and window deflectors

• Radiator grille with reinforcement in the 2021 design is for the 2013–2023 body; for the older body it is installed together with the bumper and headlights. Whether the emblem is included depends on the configuration: it’s often transferred from the factory grille.
• TRD Sport style mirror caps — replacement caps: installed instead of the factory caps, have a place for the factory LED turn signal repeater, and are designed for mirrors without a chrome insert; available in white, black, or paint-to-match. There are also caps with a repeater and chrome mirror strips.
• Window deflectors HIC in 8 cm and 11 cm widths and Niken Luxury, including versions with a chrome molding—polycarbonate with double-sided tape, sets of 4 and 6 pieces. Wider ones cover the window better; install on a degreased surface.
• Crossbars for integrated roof rails by Erkul and Cixtai. Wrap-around crossbars don’t fit the GX460 due to the rail width, so Erkul bars mount into the factory holes under the plastic caps, each secured with one bolt. Prado 150 crossbars do not fit the GX460.
• In body parts — hood, fenders, tailgate, fender liners, rear mud flaps.

Interior and trunk

Floor mats for the GX460 are selected by three factors: 5 or 7 seats, model year, and trim level. Interior sets are split into 2010–2013 and 2013–2022, trunk mats into 2009–2017 and 2018+, and for 2018+ also into Base and Elegance, Prestige, Premium, Comfort.

• EVA by Digital Designs (in-house production) — a set of 5 mats in several colors, plus separate trunk mats for 5- and 7-seat versions; lighter than rubber, odor-free, and dirt and water stay inside the cells.
• Rubber and polyurethane — Carsuit, Stingray Premium, Stingray 3D, Polytep; for 7-seat versions, the third-row mat Niken Luxury 3D is sold separately.
• Textile — Classic, Premium, and Deluxe lines.

For the interior, there is a complete steering wheel with airbag (wood trim, heated, carbon) and an interior upgrade kit. For neighboring generations, there are separate pages—Lexus GX470 2002–2009 and Lexus GX550 2023-.
