Found this fantastic post (below) about OEM splash guards for our cars, the question is can they be ordered here in the US? I've tried the first 3-4 "Lexus parts" sites on Google and none of them come back with this part number as valid. Google searching for any one of the part numbers (PZ321-30111-C1 for my car, for example) shows results but all the sites are in Russian.

Anybody have any luck buying these from a US parts site?

 

you have a link to photos of these??

 

The guy I quoted with the Part #'s put some photos up. Fronts:

Edit: extra photo:



They're color-matched to the paint, which is why the part # requires a paint code. In other threads I've seen people mention the cost as roughly ~$100 per corner.

p.s. I contacted oemlexusparts.com with the part #'s above and they said that the part #'s are no good. I'm e-mailing l-tuned to see if they have valid ones.

 

thanks for posting pics. One could debate that guards take a little away from the slick looks of the GS...but I prefer to keep mud/water off the side of my cars.....so I'd definitely be interested in these if you ever figure out where to buy them. Keep us posted!

The Gods of ebay have provided once more....lol

 

nice find!

 

dang those are over $400...

 

agreed...pretty highly priced. Appear to be OEM though, and if so...parts are always higher than they should be.

 

OK got it guys, Luis Salazar at L-Tuned Parts can still get them.

Problem is that the website is down so you have to e-mail him directly via the contact info on that page.

He quoted me $295 (paint code 212 / obsidian black) plus $45 shipping from Japan. I'll let him know that we've got a few potential orders and see if there's a group discount on shipping or something.

 

i'd be in on $340 minus a discount. Let me know.

 

He replied back on the discount front, since the website is down he can't organize a group-buy easily.

So, every man for himself

If you guys contact him, be sure to send him your paint code or VIN number so he can order the correct color.

He sent me a paypal invoice for them today, will post pics once they're on (black/obsidian paint code 212/C1).

 

do these seem to be the same ones that are on the Ebay link that Acer provided earlier in this thread??

 

Yep, should be the same ones. I don't have part #'s but Luis at L-Tuned knew exactly what I was talking about when asked, and they have a paint code that you have to verify against your body paint color.

FYI everybody, just got these in from Japan and got them on the car. They didn't come with install instructions, but the install was pretty straightforward. You do have to drill small holes in a few spots to mount them, basically anywhere where there isn't an existing hole in the fender lining to match the splash guard.

Part #'s off the parts themselves, I searched Lexus USA for these part #'s and they're not found:

At a distance, they are very minimalist and don't look out of place. I plan on giving the car a good wash tomorrow, so during the next rain storm I can get an idea of how well they work.

 

I want to update this info if anyone is still interested in these. I just ordered a set after a long search. All of jbuffett's info above is correct with one exception. Luis Salazar can now be contacted in the parts dept. at Carson Toyota in CA (ink below). He can still get these splash guards from Japan for less than the ones available on Ebay. They are still not cheap, but it's the only way I have found to get them if you want them. Luis is very friendly and helpful. Hope this helps.
