I agree with that, the fully painted new ground effect kit from Lexus are now discontinued, so they're freaking cheap. They're under $150...so you may just wanna fix the bumper and buy a new lip.

If its on DOT roads...I think you can make a claim that there was major debris on the freeway and state your claim...let your state gov. take care of the cost. If it was a private company and you know the trunk that dumped it or had a blow out...you can try that route too! Good luck...shiet happens, but when its fixed its all GOOD! Maybe you'll get a better lip!!!

The same exact thing happened to me. Some girl in front of my drove over a tire, flew up in the air and i ran over it. It looked exacly like yours with the fog light poped out and it ripped my GFX just like that. I just bought a new lip though i didn't bother with a bumper. I still have a little crack above the fog light.

weak dude! That kind of stuff blows. As i was coming home tonight i saw something ahead of the car in the next lane over. It appeared to be a 5 foot long metal ladder or something similar which got kicked up after he ran over it. ouch! had to hurt running over that at 75mph. The roads are out to get us...

And thanks AsianGirl007, it's not too noticeable so color match wax does the job, but I've gotta admit I had the worst luck with this car. Several weeks later after I had the first blown tire incident, one night I was switching lanes and it was dark....and man, right when I switched lane, there was a freaking dead deer or something in the middle and I ran it over because once again the car in front of me blocked me. It totally scrapped the bottom of my Ground effects lip. =O Then a month after that incident, I got a giant rock that hit my hood and bounced off and then left a chip in my front windshield....sigh.....wth?
Well, it's been a year now....so far, i think i've experienced the worst I wanna experience....I just pray nothing more happens to my IS.
