THANKS FOR RESPONSE BUT CANNOT SEE ANYTHING FOR THE new GS300SE (POST 2005 MODEL) BTW - ALREADY TRIED TDI AND PROLEX - NOTHING THANKS THOUGH FOR YOUR HELP

Well you got yourself a true bargain didn't you... Has anyone seen the new series on TV by Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse? Each show includes a sketch in a shop called 'I saw you coming' which features a salesman in an emporium of grossly overpriced junk, which he then proceeds to sell to gullible people with considerably more money than sense. Obviously, this sketch is more closely based on real life than I thought! Mark, you've been asked before to identify what this jealousy is you keep mentioning. No-one here is jealous of anyone else on here, but many of us do know each other quite well both in real life and through the forums. So if we get presented with an ad for something that is both grossly overpriced and advertised in a misleading way, then how can you possibly be surprised if it gets called out for being such? It's not jealousy, it's just common sense - and most of us didn't get to own a Lexus by being especially short of common sense or intelligence. So in other words it's not jealousy, and none of us here are stupid. Frankly I think you have insulted all of us by waltzing in saying you've found something amazing (when it is blatantly not), is 'a very fair price' (when it is very overpriced), and then banded accusations of jealousy around, when in fact all anyone has ever said is that the grille is far too expensive for what it is and the company selling it looks very suspicious. There is no contact address or phone number, or decent photos, and seems to have been built to resemble as closely as possible a genuine Toyota/Lexus website whilst just staying on the right side of the law. None of which is likely to fill anyone with a great deal of confidence. And since you have just tried to brush aside any comments relating to the huge coincidence of you registering here with almost the same name as the owner of that domain, on exactly the same day as that domain was registered - well that doesn't inspire confidence in either your commendations for the product, or the site itself. Again, not jealousy but common sense. EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR VIEWS AND OPINIONS BUT I SUSPECT SOME OF YOU ARE TRADERS WHEREAS I AM NOT - DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH IT COSTS TO BUY THE ONE INCH LIP SPOILER ON THE GS300 SE ? - FROM LEXUS ITS £418 PLUS VAT PLUS INSTALLATION - IE WELL OVER £700 AT THE END OF THE DAY !!!!! - MAYBE YOU ALL HAVE OLD SECOND HAND LEXUSES AND ACCESS TO CHEAP RELIABLE 3RD PARTIES IN WHICH CASE DO TELL ME - MEANTIME I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THE GRILLE - MY COLLEAGUES THINK IT LOOKS BRILLIANT AND LEXUS GARAGE LOVES IT - ONE MANS MEAT ! BTW - I THOUGHT THIS WAS A FORUM FOR DISCUSSIONS ABOUT CARS AND PRODUCTS NOT ABOUT KNOCKING A SUPPLIER OF PRODUCTS FOR LEXUS ! IF ANYONE HAS OTHER WEBSITES OR SUPPLIERS OF CHEAP LIP SPOILERS ETC DO LET ME KNOW AS WOULD BE APPRECIATED ENJOY THE REST OF BANK HOLIDAY...I JUST LOVE THE GS300 ITS A SUPERB CAR

well I have the product now and fitted - it looks FANTASTIC - strange how a grille can transform a car and make it look even better - will load up some pics for next week when I have my camera working - and btw it wasnt any where near £800 !!! and it isnt a few pieces of stick on stuff - its a complete unit - very well made and easy to fit - anyway its all about the end result - looks exactly like the grille on the CLS 63 AMG £90,000 Mercedes ! I am very pleased anyway !

Well I'm glad you do - I think it's a complete rip off. £795 for a couple of strips of chrome? The whole site looks like a con to me - it's far too stylishly done with bugger all content. One single page, no real details, no proper photos on a variety of cars, pseudo-authentic looking 'vehicle(s) shown may feature optional equipment' statement at the bottom, - I doubt the grills even exist, frankly. The site is trying to pass itself off at first sight as some sort of official accessories supplier but contains multiple spelling errors, and to cap it all, the domain lexuses.co.uk was only registered on 17th April this year. To be avoided, until proven otherwise, methinks... Well I'm glad you do - I think it's a complete rip off. £795 for a couple of strips of chrome?

THANKS TO ALL FOR FEEDBACK - THE PRODUCT IS REAL AS JUST GOT EMAIL WITH PICS FROM THE SUPPLIER - LOOKS RATHER GOOD I THINK - BUT I AM NOT GOING TO PAY IN ADVANCE UNTIL I HAVE PHYSICALLY SEEN THE GRILLE ON THE CAR - THIS IS BEING ARRANGED FOR THE WEEKEND, SO IF ITS GOOD AND FITS WELL I WILL POST A FEW PICS FOR ALL TO SEE

Are you marketing it by any chance? £750 for an overlay (CF?) to the existing grill sounds like one hell of a rip-off, and that's probably what will happen as soon as you park it anywhere outside your own garage. Sorry if I'm totally unjustifed in asking the question, but seems too much of a coincidence for a first post. Hi there - I have just got a new GS300 SE and wanted to personalise a bit - with this grille I found, a spoiler, and the such like - a spoiler from lexus is quoted at £420 plus VAT plus fitting !!!!!! so I think the grille is a very fair price in comparison! - has anyone seen one? thanks
