Have people seen the TTE bumper with headlight washer jets in?

I only ask as the bodyshop said that you could see all the mechanism through the grills by the fogs and they didn't think it looked very good so suggested I left them out which I don't mind doing but thought i'd seen them done.

Any thoughts?

Headlight washers should fit fine, given that the bumper has a similar shape to the standard one I don't see why the washer mechanism would be visible with one and not the other?

I don't have washers and actually prefer the cleaner lines without them but many do have them and that's something I've never heard before.

Yeah I thought others had had it done but without looking properly don't know whether they could see the mechanism through.
Unfortunately I am not about to be able to see for myself.

Liking the idea of the cleaner lines now though so may be for the best. cheers

yep when mine was replaced due to a moron reversing into it, the bodyshop ordered one direct through Lexus which came with the washer jets pre-cut out.

I would have thought the lower side grille bits are too low to show up the washer actuators etc ?

You'd have thought so but unfortunately as I am not there can't say for sure, just hope they're looking at it right, can only think maybe the mesh is thinner than other peeps?
