Hi everybody, new here. I'm not a Lexigente myself, I drive an '09 Camry 3.5. If I squint real hard, though, it kinda looks like an ES350.

Anyway, my elderly Mom has an '03 SC430 garage queen with about 25k on it that she's owned since new. She backed into an obstacle a while back and mangled one of her exhaust tips. Problem is, I can't find a replacement anywhere. It has the "gold package" and it would be nice if I could keep that intact.

The only place I've found gold tips is on eBay, but, to the surprise of absolutely no one, they're only for Cadillacs, either 2.25" or 3", and the SC430 looks like 2.5" to me.

I know gold tips are as dead as disco, but I'd like to make Mom happy if at all possible without breaking the bank. Any ideas for a source?

Thanks in advance! Carl

 

Hey buddy. I'm from the 2GS department... but if I were I'd try looking it up on www.sewellparts.com.... sign up and link it up with your CL account and you'll get AMAZING DISCOUNTS!!!I hope this helped bro! Good luck with that!

 

If you can't find ready-to-buy gold tips, you can have tips gold plated. I've done that in the past. Ask your local Lexus dealer who they use for such things.

 

Will your Mom ever sell the car, garage queens are the best!

 

Thanks for the suggestions, guys.

And yeah, it'll be for sale eventually. I can post it here, if that's allowed.
