Default GFX install by someone other than Lexus

Does anyone know if I purchase my GFX from Sewell and have it installed by a local body shop if I will void any part of my warranty on my new IS250?

I can't get my Lexus salesperson to give me a labor cost for installation.

Thanks in advance

Absolutely not!

Anyone can install your lip.

Cosmetic OEM changes such as those will not affect your warranty.

only certain engine works can affect your warranty, you can change the look of your car anyway you like, it will not matter

I paid $135 each to have my front/rear GFX lips installed at Lexus of Lexington. But...I think they made a mistake on the rear lip...but they stuck to the price on the rear lip. I installed the skirts....very easy.

When you order from Sewell, they provide a simple installation manual.

Try installing it yourself. Im new to modding and this was one of the easiest thing to do.
