My friend bought them from a Lexus dealer (I forgot the specific name) in the U.S for 1500$, rather expensive but really great

you can catch them on eBay for $400~each or get lucky and get both for $500, rarely but they pop up.

The car looks like he uses Zaino polish. The reflections are amazing

Are there details/pics of swapping the side mirrors? What about the wiring for the indicators?

@I8ABMR: I don't know what kind of polish he's been using but the paint is impressively shiny, should be Black Opal Mica.
@gcam77: he didn't take the process, 2 pics above are what he's got. For the indicators, you need to take out the door covers to connect the wires, must be desperate since VNmese technical workers have low skill.
@Shibumi: The headlights are original because it is the LS600hL. The price is for the side mirrors, the whole ones. Changing the outer skin is much harder.

He has different rims because he's in asia. Probably filthy rich so he can afford to get the sewell lights and swap them. I have been trying to do the same to my 08 600h these look so much better than the ones on ebay but idk who to take them to install regardless

@Nick2SJ and LXurious: The car is the 4-seat version, so it comes with the 18' Teleios rims, you can check on Lexus.com for details.
