Hi, thanks but the corrosion would make the wrap as bad.

Hi all, anybody had this done recently. Mine is going in the usual places. It was done by Lexus 8 years ago under warranty but has re-appeared. The company that has done paint for me on other vehicles will not touch it. Can't do it without removing panels and not willing to attempt. After my recent service at Lexus Leeds, I asked them for a price. It will start at 2k and no guarantee that it wouldn't go higher and wouldn't be happy warranting the work. Tried and independent Lexus repair and they are not willing to get involved. Any hope?

Late to this, thanks for the write up.

Hi, regarding aerial. I did mine x2 with aftermarket, no good. Bought the OEM and it's been fine since.

Hi saw that. I've dropped them an email.

Hi all, Has anybody managed to get this? If so which dealer? Lexus Leeds, where parts are through the Toyota desk, looked at me blank. Cheers Paul

Hi Neil, the paint shop i have used wouldn't paint them without removing them. The masking would be too much and wouldn't guarantee the chance of overspray. This is where mt concern comes from.

Let them practice on his first? At the moment mine doesn't leak and is relatively noise free, a bit cagey with regards to loosing that.

mine has the same in about three places on the roof panels. It was repainted under warranty about 8 years ago but is back now. Looking to get it painted, but the bloke I go to won't take it on, too close to the seals. Thinking of asking Lexus Leeds to remove the panels to get them painted. Lexus Leeds have a body shop, will have to get telephoning, but car is away now for winter.

mine went on my sc430 just after purchase, the after market one lasted about a month. I ended up going oem (ouch). Hope you have better luck.

Mine was in Tuesday 18th for the same, also in silver. Same tester, must be getting used to them by now. When I went to collect it was parked up outside the front doors, it looked superb in the sunlight. I failed and didn't take a photo.

I'd be up for a meet in the north, i'm East leeds based

All, Don't know if it will solve the OP but I had a more modern folding key made from one of the 3 button type keys posted above. They were very helpful and professional. Worth a call? Leeds Lock Centre 01132259388

Had mine done at Lexus Leeds, no problems whatsoever. Done a few miles, no rattles and had a good study, no marks. Had MOT and small service done at the same time. Had it for a full day and a half. CT as a courtesy car, driving it is like been in a different make of car, never mind model. They forgot a few things after making the SC.
