Currently the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11389 and Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24923 are the only receivers we have confirmed to fit your 2021 Lexus IS 350 F-Sport. There is not a hidden style receiver available for your Lexus. I do prefer the Draw-Tite over the Curt as it does not require the use of a Stabilizing Strap # 18050 when using a bike rack.

For a bike rack I recommend the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack # SH12G. This lightweight aluminum rack only weighs 32lbs and is capable of supporting 2 bikes up to 40lbs each. The rack raises the bikes 9" above the receiver to reduce the chances of dragging on driveways and over speed bumps.

A 4-Way Harness # C59496 is needed if your bikes impair the view of your tail lights to other drivers. You will be able to use the Auxiliary Lights # C53201 with the 4-way to attach lights on the bike rack.
