Damn man, I'm sorry If it makes you feel any better when I bought my FRONT lip I saw the $168 and then selected my color paint and it shot up to $293 and I was like....DAMMMMNNNNNIIIITTTT.

I bought it anyway and then realized after I paid that I FORGOT TO LOG IN AND ADD IT AGAIN TO MY CART :/ .... I freakin paid $300 when it should have been $215

It looks like the prices are different depending on the color you pick.

I think its due to a lot of buyers that have SGM. I just recently bought mine and it was backordered. it was still $168 when I bought it though

I don't know if you knew but lextuners had the gfx sides and rears for $89+ shipping. It was on clearance. Don't know if they still do tho.

Did you try a PM to Sewell on this forum?

I'm thinking about ordering a few things from them as well so I hope this wouldn't happen to me.

I think it depends on the color. Same thing happened to me when I ordered my front GFX.

Mine said "back order" for a few days because they had to prep and paint the thing. I sent an email to them and they responded the next day saying, "It should be shipped tomorrow." They didn't lie and I'm now waiting on it to be delivered tomorrow. Just have patience in their response time or go to their forum and BLOW THEM UP. They will hit you back I promise.

Yoan - We received your PM, as well as your phone call (now you're posting) about the rear GFX in your color 1G0. Please understand, the rear GFX lip in your color is discontinued. You mentioned this to me by phone, but I recall you asking if we had any more (???). For those items we do not have in stock nor cannot obtain any more, we declare those items as discontinued on our site. By marking at item as discontinued on our site, we feel this is our best way of communicating to those who see the part as it's simply not available. It's Discontinued.

Despite this, during your call I was able to manually substitute a different color rear GFX lip and accompanied it with our custom paint (performed by our Certified Lexus Body Shop) in 1G0. This added service for painted caused the price to change to the greater. I felt I was able to accurately convey these details to you however I'm second guessing myself since your new thread leads me to believe otherwise. Your PM to us minutes before this thread began "With much respect" - I'm sorry we did not reciprocate.

As it stands, we're happy to sell you a rear lip spoiler at the $168 price you noticed, however you should know, it won't be in the color you're requesting.

I hope this helps,
Darrel
