I don't know if you are comfortable going to an auto recycler, but it sounds like the type of part that would be expensive at a dealer, but economical from a recylcer.

+1, head to a local salvage yard and get it from there.

It might be helpful for you to know that it is attached by 2 10mm hex head sheet metal-type screws at the ends and the rest of the places by bolts with 10mm hex heads. No pop-connectors like some other Lexus models. Sometimes these are not all replaced by oil-changers.
