Post Lexus 450h "Lifestyle" Edition (U.K)

Saw an ad for it in the Euro mags and googled it....didn't see a thread. Seems like some aluminum/metal accents for the exterior and other small touches inside. Not sure can we try to source these parts.

I posted here since any RX should be able to swap these parts out.

Lexus has released a special edition of its hybrid SUV fitted with practical accessories for winter outdoor activities. It’s called the RX 450h SE-I Lifestyle edition and it comes equipped with roof rails and a rear bumper protect, plus front and rear under-run plates. It gets interior upgrades as well.

Inside the cabin you get a tough boot liner ready to cope with muddy boots, plus a refrigerated cool box that can equally keep food and drinks warm. According to Lexus these extra stuff cost normally about £1,500, but for the RX 450h SE-I they offer it for just £499. The on-the-road price of the RX Lifestyle is £48,899.

Me too on the cooler. I believe they have them on the UK Lexus site. The rest of the stuff, not so much.

I can buy the skid plate front and rear for $300. Will my car become RX 350 SE-I Lifestyle edition?
Actually, my car already falls into "limited edition" category. Hahaha.

Where can you buy that I wanna know?

The RX350 is NOT a limited edition at all. I see at least 10 a day in my small town in Lincoln NE.

I bought my car from Australia shipped to China shipped to Europe then shipped to Africa then came to the America. That's "Limited Edition" car. OR you can buy the sticker at $4.99 at Autozon and pretending like my car "LIMITED EDITION"

Don't degrade our cars here in the states. If the U.K has a "Lifestyle" Edition then We should have Limited Edition .

^ Or for you the 'sweet' edition, replete with multi-color lights inside and out, and a little extra bling here and there
