They are standard OEM Lexus accessory for all models, not a part of the UL package. They come painted to match your color. I added them right after buying the car in 2007.

Drag em on the ground like the Honda/VW guys do and cry after you burned $500+ lol
Lower by about an inch...inch and a quarter.

Bringing this back from the dead. Will the celsior 04-06 splash guards fit a USA model 04-06 with no issues? Wanting to order a set of these asap and only see the one japan ones for sale. Price tag is steep but they look killer I think and functional

Nice. I just looked for a set and I don't see them offered in Briarwood Pearl

I wonder what the olive color is? Olive green?

Olive sounds like cypress pearl maybe? Wasn't that a light green? I need them in black so that should be easy. I checked the link you posted and looks like they have them. Just gotta order each piece separately along with each screw,washer etc.

Lavish I'm sure you could always get them painted for your color fairly cheap since its such small pieces or use it as an excuse to get a trunk lip spoiler and a front lip to match

I checked l tuned for these and they have a set of 4 listed at 999.00!! Are they nuts?

That makes the 500.00 one ones on eBay seem cheap

Yes, per the attached image. I found cheaper prices by google-ing the part numbers. Make sure you get the "kit" that includes the extra hardware needed to install them. I always buy black mudguards regardless of body color but I want them only to protect cars from debris kicked up by tires -- especially that black gooey road tar.

Thanks for that info. I've found all the part numbers for the flaps in black just nothing listing a full kit for the hardware. Just individual part numbers for the grommets,screws but unclear how many of which are needed

Forum sponsor Sewell has them on their website - two prices are listed for each color: $106 and $117 each with ClubLexus discount. http://lexus.sewellparts.com/oem-cat...S430-2004.html

I wonder if the $117 version includes the hardware and the $106 version does not. You could contact Sewell by email or phone and ask. They've been very good to me.

They might seem expensive but I paid more that this for mudguards at a Lexus dealer in the U.K. just after I bought my first LS400 in early 1990.

They were an add on. Bought at Sewell Lexus online. They were already painted. Very easy to install.
