Hello everyone,

I am a new owner of a 2005 LX470 just purchased last Friday. I was searching the internet for some fender flares and did a search on this forum, but was unsuccessful. I found a photo of a LX that was in Japan. Unfortunately, I can't read Japanese. So, I thought I would ask anyone here if you'd know where I can get me some fender flares to give my LX a more aggressive look.

Any help would be appreciated.

Lowenhart makes fender extensions-

although if you're going to install those I would run a more aggressive offset than factory or else they'll look kind of silly.

Thanks for the link. Those are nice!!! So, is there somewhere you can get it here in the US?

I noticed there's someone who has these fender flares on their LX470 here in Seattle. Here's their LX470. (I hope they don't mind me using their photo)

Well, I called the Toyota dealer yesterday (parts dept). They can sell fender flares for the LandCruiser, but the guy was telling me that it is going to cost a fortune, ~$1000. They don't sell fender flare kits so you'd have to piece meal it together ... not to mention drill holes through your fender to attach it. Where's the aftermarket stuff when you need them??

They have a set listed for $399 for the LC. However, I don't know if they'll fit over the LX body cladding the same.

First, love the all black LX... but damn could they not get clear corners for it?

Secondly, you don't have to drill your fenders (I don't think). The LC flares attach to the wheel well and with adhesive tape on the top.
