Default Body side mouldings for the RX 350 from Sewell?

Just wondering if anyone here has ordered and installed the body side mouldings for their 2010 RX from Sewell? I will be ordering some mud flaps or splash guards from them sometime in Nov while we are wintering in Mesa, however I noticed that they have some body side mouldings available.
Are these of good quality and match the paint colour, and are easy to install.
I want to protect the side of the doors from chipping when other people open their doors in a parking lot and don't care about the vehicle parked beside them. I would also like to find a bug or stone deflector for the front of the hood, or else have some of that clear film put on. Anything to prevent stone chips on the hood or windshield??
Thanks!

I have to agree with everyone here that Sewell offers good prices and easy to shop online (http://sewellparts.com) for real Lexus parts. So far I've bought mudguards, Crossbar Roof Rack and Body Side Moldings with great discounts. Prices are a lot better than local Lexus dealers - even we have to pay extra for shipping.

Another happy Swell customer.

As for the side molding, I have seen it in person and I'd say it is great item to add. Pre-painted, well made, and great price. I personally think it somewhat kills RX's clean side styling, but if you prefer that way, I'd say you would be very happy with it.

Nothing against Darrel, but his attitude and unresponsiveness at the time left a lot to be desired for someone in customer service, who in the end was supposed to address his company's repeated mistakes on an order that was over $1k.
I agree, especially when you ask Darrel things like customs and taxes, shipping cost, etc. He would reply promptly and then somehow the communication was broken. I guess it is a very busy shop and so it is keep up with emails with trivial (but yet important) questions.

Overall, this is a good place to deal with in terms of speed of shipping. I ordered something recently and three days later (counting the weekend), the order arrived in Canada! It is very fast.
