Default Wholesale Parts

Looking for a rear bumper cover without parking sensors for a 2008 GS350... Any of guys know a place or work for a wholesale parts store? Where do auto body shops get their parts from? I've tried Levan but they don't have what I'm looking for. Prefer some place local or any in the Bay Area.

I've tried ebay and googling it also...

most of the wholesale warehouse/stores like the one i work for are not open to the public... because the price is so low... they can only sell it to the shops... but if they are open to the public... the public price is different

Can you get the bumper since you work there? LOL... Or maybe I can ask my shop to order it from you guys.

Try to call National Auto Body in Oakland, they are located near the coliseum. They might not have it but worth a try.

http://lexus.sewellparts.com/oem-cat...S350-2007.html

register and CL price is 320.26 before shipping.

http://lexus.sewellparts.com/oem-cat...S350-2008.html

Even cheaper if you get an 08. The price 298.79 before shipping.

I'm pretty sure they are the same..only difference might be the middle part of an 07 is black while the 08s are the same color as the car.

I tried sewell but my shop can get it for about the same price... I'm hoping to get it for cheaper.

I found this guy on ebay and he said he carries my bumper for a real good price. It's a re-manufactured oem bumper.

Any of you guys ordered from him before?
