Default Need help figuring out what this part is

i found that this flap like trim in front of my driver side rear wheel had come off. the screw that's supposed to hold it in place came out. i can't seem to find out what part number it is or the name of the part. if anyone can help me find out i'd great appreciate it.

I'd take it off completely for now until you get that piece (just go to the dealer, it'll be the fastest thing and I can't imagine you'd spend any more on it than online after shipping).

Last thing you want is the whole flap falling off while driving, then you'll have even more to buy.

Check out mylexparts.com. They have pretty good exploded drawings, so hopefully you can find the part fairly easily.

1. If not too far, go to a Lexus dealer, they should have clips like this in stock
2. If #1 doesn't work, go to a large body shop, they will find a clip similar enough to do the job. It will probably look different from the OEM, but who would ever see it there?

i got the clip. it's called a "lower retainer" and was $5.09+tax. i think the part number is 75867-30120.

gs350lexus, i forgot to ask them about the flap. i'm sorry =( if a small clip is $5 i imagine the whole flap would be around $20?
