rmmgs4 taught me this. it's amazing how these little stuff works sometimes
Rom, I know the type of clip you are talking about with the little button on the middle, but thats not the kind of clips that are on my 2001. I can't speek for others but I know the clips(plastic rivets-whatever) along the bottom of my stock skirts are the solid type with no release button. My ES has those easy release clips on the front and they are super easy to remove and reinstall.

I WORK FOR LEXUS IN CHARLOTTE, AND WE ORDERED A COUPLE OF SETS OF DIFF. COLORS AND ALL THE WHITE ONES (062) CAME STRIPPED WITH OFF WHITE, DISCOLORED, WE ORDRED OURS FROM L-TUNED , THEY WERE NICE ENOUGH TO PAY US A CREDIT TO PAINT THEM, AND IN ONE CASE THEY SHIPPED US NEW ONES PAINTED , L-TUNED IS THE ORIG. DEALER SUPPLIER , I WOULD ASK YOUR SUPPLIER TO CALL L-TUNED FOR THE CREDIT, OH YEA THE WHITE ONES WERE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAME DISCOLORED

for all those who bought this kit in crystal white,

darryl is talking with TRD to see if there is a solution to this problem. he emailed me this morning to let me know when he gets more info from TRD, he'll pass it on to us.

I hope TRD steps up to the plate to fix this problem, which seems to be the white color only.

update from darryl as of 2:25 PST. he left a message indicating that he informed UPS to pickup the aero kit from my house and will repaint the kit.

he mentioned that TRD knows about this problem and is working with darryl.

for those who bought this kit in crystal white, contact darryl so he can work with you.

thumbs up for darryl for finding a solution to this problem and addressing it.
