Default Anyone know where I can grab a replacement headlight chrome trim??

As the title says, I'm looking to buy a replacement chrome trim for the headlight. My brother recently bought a 2006 GS300 and the current trim is a little messed up- some scratches and such. Personally, I don't think it's a really big deal...but he does so he asked me to do some digging since the local Lexus dealership is charging somewhere around $350.

If anyone knows of a vendor or site that has it for cheaper, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!!

I have a question regarding the chrome trim, as I have not been able to find the answer in previous threads.

How do you remove the chrome trim surrounding the headlights and the grille (or the grille in its entirety)? Because I want to color match those pieces with the rest of my car.

usually you tape and paint it....

from the pictures of the chrome bezel, it seems like the bezel is held on by screws and a few tabs, shouldn't be hard to remove with the right tools

i.e. you'll need to remove headlight to take care of that bezel.
