Bumper Protector

capese21 · August 21, 2015

While I was in the dealership I noticed a brand new is300 which had a bumper protector fitted. I like the look so bought one. My bumper had a few marks & scratches so it covered them up to. It is an OE part so fits properly.

Thanks

All Lexus accessorises are expensive!! part no GBNGA-LXISB-PP. I bought it on eBay from the Lexus Birmingham eBay shop. Look up the price yourself as I am in denial. :tsktsk:

That protector looks very nice but where on earth do they get their prices from!!!!

£120.00 for what appears to be a strip of self adhesive plastic........wow!

Isn't it part of the "Protection Pack", which also includes rubber boot tray? I didn't realise they could be bought separately, though.

I paid the bargain price of £90 delivered. Strange enough for a Lexus part it is made in the UK.

Cheaper non OE one here. I nearly went for this but decided to pay Lexus price for the OE.

Haha I guess that's fair enough then. I don't thsee protectors have been out that long. Looks great on red but the one I had on white demo stood out too much

The Lexus OE bumper guard is made in UK. This leads me to believe that this company make them for Lexus who put them into a branded box and charge double!!

I have an aluminium one on order. I assume its an OE.

On order from who? I don't think Lexus make them from aluminum, maybe a new MY part Or probably ABS made to look like alluminium?? Rearguards have them and imho make them for Lexus. I prefer black as it matches the bumper and compliments the Mesa Red. Aluminum or Carbon Fiber may look good on a white or silver car.

Post some pics.

I have just bought a white F Sport - collecting it this weekend and it had a black one on, told the salesman that it looked unsightly and he said he can get a silver one (assumed it is alloy colored)

I may have the part number as it is on the order form

L3xu5gt · October 5, 2015

Part number : GBNGA LXISB PM

Slight digression, but anybody seen a protective strip for the underneath of the front spoiler?

L3xu5gt · October 5, 2015

When I pick it I will post some pics

L3xu5gt · October 10, 2015

As promised

Silver bumper protector

capese21 · October 10, 2015

Brushed aluminum? TBH I prefer the black one with Mesa red as it looks more factory. Maybe not on a white car though.

Some higher res pics of your car would be nice

Yep the dealers buy them directly at even less. They get them for about £45

Wow, that's really rare !!!!

Rare...... Not much chat on here regarding 250's I nearly bought a 300h, however you cannot compare the driving experience between the two in my opinion, i stood back and considered the pros and cons and came up with the conclusion that you cannot put a cost on the driving experience and therefore could justify the £290 road tax and the slightly less fuel consumption. I spent three months looking for a 250 and visited numerous dealerships. I got exactly what I wanted white with red leather and Levinson
