Default 2012 Rx350 front driver side splash guard/wheel

Howdy! A piece of our undercarriage splash guard front driver side & wheel well splash cover is missing. We are requesting help sourcing a parts/part numbers and retaining clips. Is this 2 separate splash guard pieces or one piece? Please see the photos. I have a garage to do the work, I need to purchase the parts. Thanks!

You can always ask your local lexus dealer and are under no obligation to purchase. I would price them out so that when you shop elsewhere and include shipping charges, you would make the right decision.

The other option is to go to online Lexus parts retailers like Butler Lexus of Arizona and drill down to your model/yr. Giving your vin would get you the right part.

The drawings would also help you visualize.

Any local auto body shop can also identify and obtain the parts for your Lexus. They do this all the time during accident repairs.
Estimates are free and they are usually far easier to work with than the dealer. Just drive up to one and ask for an estimate.
A friend just did this with a recently inherited 2013 VW Tiquan as a similar piece under the engine was torn loose. The shop got the part in a couple of days and installed it in an hour.

How did they come off in the first place? That’s unusual

People drive over obstacles in the road that should not be in the road and cannot be avoided. Or people just drive over stuff they cannot see.
Or a pothole one could not avoid.
Or the little plastic anchors break and the cover hangs down until snagged by something or the wind tears them off on the highway.

My sister was parked and did not realize there was one of those concrete parking lot beams in front and attempted to drive straight out as the place ahead was empty and got hung up on the concrete beam for a few minutes until she stomped on the gas and dragged her car over it and away....
Or as in the case of my friend with the Tiquan, his elderly mother kept driving long after she should have stopped and drove over something she could not see!

My experience has been the mechanic not reinstalling properly after removal.
