Welcome to the world of Lexus..... Contact Aliga, he's parting out a GS4 and may still have it.

That chrome piece comes only in 2001+ GS (gs400 are <2000)

So what is in place of the chrome piece? A black rubber piece?

The one on Ebay is junk. The fit is absolutely terrible. Also, it is an overlay piece that would need something to stick it onto.

Check out this website http://car-part.com to search for used parts, I would look under interior when searching for the part and call them(junkyard that has the part) up.
