Under body cover/shield
The shields protect the underbody from all road contaminants. If you fall in love with the LS like many do, you'll want to keep it in good shape and not buy corroded replacement parts (pricey) unnecessaryily. Also, the car is engineered to be quiet, missing shields will disrupt that. You can find used parts and the fasteners are pretty cheap on ebay. Then one appointment with a shop lift will have you 100%. Welcome to the forum of Lexus lovers.

Funny, I just read your initial post and I was going to say cars have been without those panels for over a hundred years, but then I read the sage advice from other members here, so I will defer to them.
Congrats on the new car and I wish you good luck with it. However, without pics, it didn't happen.
