Why is it always someone's GF/wife/sister/family relation that damages their Lexus?

I'd say stick with the GFX front. Then if you get sick of it down the line, just pick up a different aftermarket lip and keep the GFX, in case something like this happens again or in case you want to go back to the GFX.

Good luck.

My wife has now curbed 2 of my FSport wheels, pulled up into a curb on my front lip, and hit something in the road as well. I hit a retread laying in the road a few weeks ago that really effed some stuff up though. No way to avoid that sometimes.

I think I would have been more pissed if I would have done the damage myself. She thought I was going to freak out because she knows I baby my car, as well as hers (wifey has an RX350). I couldn't really be too mad, because it's just a car and I'm glad she didn't get hurt, she also had our little girl in the car at the time. Sucks though spending money to fix something stupid when I was about to get my drop done. Oh well, ish happens.

Guess I'll stick with the GFX lip for now. I'm not even gonna worry about it for a week though, we're leaving to visit friends in Charleston, SC tomorrow, going to relax on the beach.
