can those that ordered and received theirs lately chime in? are you guys ordering the one that's $18 shipped (from a-suntek) or $33 shipped? (from nyc-auto-parts)? was wondering what the difference was......and to those that got them already, does it come with a silver or gold lexus logo?

if you get this key watchout it is super super big i had one but switched cause it was soo bothersome. i know its cool but you have a high potential of breaking it because when you stick it in the ignition it is held by a little joint that holds on the big end and any other keys you might have on it.

Anyone in Maryland, and got theirs cut? Mine should be here this week, just looking for other options if the my local lexus dealership wont do it. My uncle is a master tech @ Lexus near me, and he said they won't do it because it messes up their machine, so have to check the other Lexus dealership in town.

I just tried to get mine cut at the dealer
They can do it, but they require the vin#, your drivers license, registration...something that shows you own the car. Oh yeah, and 45 bucks....geez

Could anyone with the flip key please post some hi-res pictures, preferably a pic with the logos on?
I'm contemplating purchasing one, but I want to see how it looks before making the plunge. Thanks.

Of course that makes sense....not complaining about that. But they should have told me this when I called. Totally agree about verifying you are the owner. Since I just got the car, the paperwork was in my briefcase and left it at work. Wanted to make others aware to make sure they have the right paperwork before they go to the dealer. I guess I can't complain about the $45 to cut when j version said it was $85 for him/her.
