I was told by part rep that Lexus Westminster is going to match the price from other Lexus dealer. so I got the quote of brake components from Carlson (Toyota,Lexus) Dealer and bring to Westminster Lexus but the Part Manger was not happy when he saw that list(the price is to low) compared to Carlson Lexus. and he said that Dealer is unauthorized Lexus Dealer. And tell me that I am lied on that list price.and didn't want to match the price( even I told him if he cannot match the price and let me know so I can order from Carlson).and make fun of me in front of other customer.And they known that I am their loyal customer for last 6 years, with my three lexus cars as service maintenance.!

I'm asian and haven't had issues there. Don't be so quick to play the racism card.
My understanding of the situation is you are asking Westminster to price match a quote from a non Lexus dealer. They said they couldn't match the price. At this point you should ask them what is the best price they can give you. If it isn't to your satisfaction then perhaps exercise your option to buy from Carson Toyota.

Based on what I'm reading it sounds like you wanted them to price match, but if you didn't get what you want, it isn't "racism" and it's just as big of a jump to say that because of this their Parts Service Department at this Dealership is "very bad".....just seems too big of an umbrella statement IMO.

I hit up the various dealers on their price matching as well. Some do and some don't though most will make a reasonable offer. Carson prices are often substantially lower and they are not a direct Lexus dealer so they can choose to not price match. If the total parts list is significant enough, the drive over to Carson is worthwhile. When I was looking for a replacement seat belt, Carson's price was ~$80 less than others. That was worth the drive.

Did you give him the quote verbally or by a invoice form Carson?
Are you being cheap?
I'm asian never had any problems.
Describe the parts mgr? Was he older gentleman, bald and have a beard or?

so let me get this straight, you got a quote Carlson (Toyota,Lexus) dealer AND went to Westminster Lexus dealer to price match ? why ? why don't u just buy from Carlson ?
You've been a loyal customer for 6 years, obviously you were happy w/ their service maintenance, so why let the bad experience buying "price-match-on-parts" ruin your experience w/ their "car service" ?
Stay cool my friend, no need to get crazy over this.
