We do have a forum vendor that specializes in these visors; doesn't look like they make one for the RX currently, but wouldn't hurt to ask if there is demand.

http://www.lundcw.com/

Maybe this? (suspect that link doesn't get our forum discount with them advertised in their banner ad)

Thanks Dave. I asked Lund about them back in December. They had no plans to make them back then. Maybe if a few people expressed interest like you suggest, they'll change their minds. They're the next best thing to the JDMs lookwise but much cheaper.

By the way I got my JDMs from a vendor here. I definitely believe in supporting them

I have found two aftermarket visors in Japan specially made for the 2010 RX.
They are both priced at around $75.
Quality and fitment are unknown.
I'll see if I can dig out some reviews/feedback from the RX owners in Japan.

Nice find!!!

That's a lot of pieces,though.I'd like about 3-4 pieces,not 36!

I still may bite at $263.50 free shipping.

http://www.wooddash.com/fullimage/3865.gif

Once I got the Sherwood Inovation part 3865 for the Brown Walnut Factory Match (for Parchment Leather, Parchment Perforated Leather, Black Leather & Black Perforated Leather Interiors) - With/Without Navigation - number of pieces: 36

http://www.autoanything.com/dash-kits/75A5351A0A0.aspx

Autoanything has the exact same 3865 from Sherwood for $257.95 free shipping with two more piece at 38.
However,buying from autoanything and the kt is non refundable where as Wooddash a 25% restocking fee and $15 shipping fee.

I feel your pain. Lexus is known for understated elegance - this is a little over the top.

Something tells me they may be plastic overlays, not wood. Then again, if they were, the price might be in the stratosphere...

I wouldn't mind the plastic overlay vs wood if they match.
However,36 added wood pieces would be wat too gaudy.I'd really only want the shifter area piece and the piece that would cover the silver plastic center dash area.I'm sure I can pick another 1-2 pieces if I look hard enough but the other 32 or so....nah..

I see AVS makes ventvisor for the Toyota Venza that sale for $50.
Going to makes some calls tomorrow and see if these will or will not work.

Definitely give them a call to find out.

Perhaps this rx is still too new, so that there are less aftermarket products developed for this car yet.
It is just a matter of time if you can wait.

I have some big ticket items coming from Japan for my sc430, I'll check if my contact can put those aftermarket JDM visors in the same package.

I have already contact them earlier this year but I didn't get any response and they don't have one listed for RX. I have purchased their brand for other vehicles and they are of good quality but their selections are limited.

"talwang"; if you can contact the vendor in Japan to provide us with $75 sets, I am first in-line.

Well called Lund and they said that they see no problems with the Toyota Venza's fitting the rx350. So I'm going to order them and give them a try.

What is needed for the Lund discount for the CLub Lexus?

My contact had sent out my SC430 part before I asked him to get those visors.
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...-bumper-2.html

I plan on getting the Rojam lip kit for my RX350 very soon, so I can still get those visors.

By the way, my contact is considering signing up with CL.
When he does, you can ask him to get those visors for you, oem or aftermarket at a good price.

JDM visors are still expensive, the ones i have on my IS really looks good and compliments the vehicle really well. Current JDM visors still costs $500+ with Nigel parts... Probably once the price goes down to like 300+ then i will bite..
