Default Lighted scuff/sill plates

My 2021 Smokey Granite vert got totaled. Will be good news for a member here. I have a set of lighted sill plates that are in new condition that I will let go for $400. The last picture is of the sill plate base that are still in factory package that I will throw in for $200($600 from Lexus) if purchased as a package, you will need these if you have one-piece sill plates. Lexus calls them Ochre.....they are the only tan/brown available. I will also include a front tag mount. Shoot me a message or text to 828-234-0424.

Oh no - hope you’re okay. If appropriate, I would be interested to hear the circumstances that led to the totaling of your car and whether it adequately protected you in a crash - e.g. did the roll bars activate or any of the airbags?

My car has the “Carbon Scuff Plate” option so I don’t think they would work with the lighted version.

Both wife and I are 100%. I was rear ended with most damage on the right quarter panel. Wound up being a total because it was pushed up into the top operating mechanical. Very expensive to repair an LC. The trunk lid alone was over $15k!

Good to hear you’re okay! Sorry about your car - but that can be replaced. One nice thing about the LC’s “weight problem” is it definitely gives me a feeling of strength and security that is unusual in my experience for a convertible - sometimes when I’m driving my LC I feel like I’m piloting the battleship Yamato down the road
Are you gonna get another LC or shop around for something else?

The other guy didn't have enough coverage, so my collision had to kick in. Love the new one even better.
