Looking for new front lip for my car and just wondering if there's ones made out of Polyurethane?

The only thing available is the OEM Lexus Japan accessory kit. Most all Japanese aftermarket body kits are made of either FRP or Fiberglass only.

i like the lexus oem kit because it comes with lexus quality and oem fitment and even better, oem col,or match. I hate when you go to a body ahop and they will sit there and tell you that the color match will not be 100% because of the bumpers being plastic or some colors are harder to match. Its all crap and unacceptable. I wont even go down that road I would stick with oem kit from lexus

Hate to say it, even factory painted parts including bumper covers and other trim don't perfectly match what's on the body. This is more prominent on Starfire, Mercury Metallic and the lighter colors.

Chances are the Lexus OEM kit will not match what's already painted on your vehicle. Different and slight variances in the color tinting will show unless they are all painted at the exact same time your vehicle was.

I totally agree with flipside. Even a new car you buy.. The bumpers are slightly different color from the car, due to ABS plastic.

A good body shop will be able to match the paint color, and any differences in color will not be visible to the untrained eye. It takes a lot of research and visiting all the different body shops to see the kind of work they do, and if it matches your expectation of color matching. Don't write off good body shops just because you have had a bad experience. There may be a few or a lot of bad apples in the apple cart, but there's also a few or a lot of good apples too! It's a matter of picking the right one.

There are only two I know of

1) JDM Lexus Japan front lip

2) CarsonTuned front lip (in stock) http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=2248

We use Backyard Creations Auto Body in El Monte for pre-painting on our aero kits, they use PPG and are fantastic on color matching

Well said Steve! I totally forgot about the Carson Tuned Kit.

I wouldn't worry about what the kit is made of unless your a really careless driver. My kit is made of some hybrid fiberglass and it holds pretty well... even when the dealership decided to curb the lower front after I told them to be careful. oh well, its still looking good. just a lil bit of clear bra got scraped up.

It's called FRP - Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic. Most all JDM body kits are made with this as it is stronger and thinner than regular fiberglass and it's lightweight.
