Default Moulding clips

Hey,

does anyone know where I can get this moulding clip? 7539530290.
It holds the small Rectangle after the front wheels. Mine broke and it is sticking out and that is just triggering me.
When I asked lexus they wanted like 5 dollars for one (I dont want to pay 5 bucks for this tiny piece of plastic), and I need like 4-5 of them since I would like to replace the other side just in case and hove couple of them in storage if I would break other ones.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that particular clip is specific to the 2GS/Aristo.

The words luxury and cheapness cannot be combined in the same sentence. This is a pretty typical OEM clip price even for non-luxury cars these days.

I know that I bought a Luxury car and I am ok with spending a lot on it. I spent more then 5k on the car itself just to get it to where I like it with many parts exceeding 600 dollars.
I just cant justify myself to pay 5bucks for such a tiny piece of plastic.
But as I see it i will have to since there is no other way around it.
