You could order them from the dealer. They are usually pre painted from the factory with an adhesive backing. The only thing is, they are very pricey. Also i'm not too sure if these mouldings require fasteners/tabs where these tabs lock into pre-drilled holes in the door skin. You may want to call your Lexus parts counter a call.

The body side molding is not listed as an option on the Lexus web site.

I think you would have to ask the dealer if they can order and install it for you.

Having spent extensive time in both the 2RX and 3RX, I'd like to point out that on the pictures shown, the 3RX upper 'plastic' portion is covered in a soft vinyl-like material, and doesn't feel plasticky IMO. In both 2RX and 3RX, the below-armrest portion with the storage area is hard plastic, that is the same. The 2RX armrest is upper leather, lower plastic (with the wood trim) with leather around door handle, whereas the 3RX armrest is leather around (with wood insert).

With regards to the 2GX, my experience on seeing the front interior in person was that it was a definite upgrade, in a similar style as the 3LX, namely there is the silver plastic trim and Bubinga wood, and hence more modern. Yes, there are hard plastics on the door handles, but the seats have softer leather, etc. There are tradeoffs but it is an improvement for the front dash area.

I was told body side molding are NOT available on the base model and cannot be ordered through the parts dept. Perhaps a body shop can get them....they have to have access in order to repair after an accident. The doors do have to be drilled to install.
