Good to see there is a domestic option. There weren't any when I installed mine years back.

Yeah, I was going to purchase one last Friday but they had just went out of stock. Now they are back in stock and I jumped at the bit.

Out of curiosity, does anyone who uses these deflectors have issues with dirt and debris building up behind them? I ended up removing a similar deflector on my pickup truck since gunk would build up behind it and it was a pain to clean without removing the deflector itself.

I can't speak for them all but I haven't had that issue.... I can easily get my hand down in there with wash cloth on one I have.

that's a very good price. I believe I saw it on eBay after I bought mine. They look very simiar - probably the same one.

I don't really want a clear bra and don't mind the look of bug deflectors. My plan is to coat it with a white hyper-dip (this will also give me practice for chrome deleting) and see how it looks.

I was thinking they were made in Russia like yours was, but they actually went out of stock last Friday (of course when I was planning on buying one) and just came into stock yesterday. Which makes me wonder if there was a delay or if they make them in house?

It is listed for 2010 to 2013 models, but the pictures show 2014 model onwards. I am wondering whether it will fit my 2015 GX 460. Any one had installed this on the 2014 plus models?

Also please point to me where i can buy for 2015 if it does not fit.

PZ451J8530ZA part which Acrad ordered is no longer available.

Thanks for heads up that one I purchased is no longer being sold.

I haven't check to see if the EGR "non Lexus branded" version is still for sale or not.

Nice. I did install also. I did one mistake though, instead of clipping outside the hood, I clipped inside and hence the deflector was in between the hood and the grill. It was difficult to close, I had to bang it. Then I made the clip stay outside the hood and installed. Now perfect.
Now I am seeing a millimeter or two gap between the rubber lining and the hood. Dont know if it was before install also.
