Can find them occasionally on my.is or clublexus classifieds when people part out their cars.. Usually people want around $60 shipped for the piece, which isn't bad compared to the price you were quoted.

Painted and BNIB from Toyota $60.60 each + shipping. Click on roof molding, and then click on the desired color. If you want to call them, their number is 512-707-5560. They are kinda slow to respond to email, so calling them is the best option if you want a quick answer.

I just discovered that my roof molding is not tightly secured either. It is peeling off on the driver's side molding, my passenger's side seems fine. My questions are:
will a body shop use glue (or epoxy)?
What did the factory use?
I just dont want to ruin the paint... but i dont want it stolen or water in my trunk either.

Some 2001 paint code (white for example) is different so make sure you double check whatever color you have.......
If you have a 2002+ and you have the same paint as a 2001 might as well try to save a couple dollars and put it towards shipping cost...

Loctite extreme conditions (I've actually glued a broken lexus key back together with it.) It becomes a removeable rubber type compound after curing for a while so if you ever had to remove it, it wouldn't be that hard, but the hold itself is amazing!
