Now I will probably have to resort to Autozone , beck arnley stuff for some items.

But in the past, I had came across this lexus of Atlanta website which is a few dollars more than the CL discount'd sewell price.

I'm not affiliated obviously, the website is
http://www.lexussouthatlantaparts.com/

any feedback?


I live in California and going to any dealer in town is going to be trouble, they charge about 200% of what you found online or usually 150% MSRP.
I am in California too, I use MyLparts.com. All genuine parts. Great service. Great prices and shipping. I get all my stuff within two days! I will message you the details as well.

Dang ... sad to see them go ... I've ordered a bunch of things through them like sway bars, sport pedals, and brake pads, just to name a few items. They really made it easy for the Lexus community to get legit parts and aftermarket accessories.

Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but the decision to close the online parts section is NOT affiliated with Corporate Lexus. It is internal.

With that said, I did start a petition as the employee I spoke with said they could use the support. Let's try and revive the online parts and keep it around...

I always get my stuff very fast from them. Their shipping prices are very reasonable and I think they still do free shipping over a certain amount. Hope this helps.

Sounded great but you will have to pay Uncle Brown almost 10% sale tax and that would eat away all the savings especially when buying big ticket items.
Sewell will definitely be missed!

I live 150 miles from the closest Lexus dealership. In a pinch, I've been able to get Lexus parts from the local Toyota dealership before but I can't even consider that an alternative to ordering from Sewell parts.

I signed the petition - hopefully it has some impact.

Well I just gave a signature. Very sad to see this site go, it has saved me so much time when looking for oem parts.
