Im getting that dreaded thump under my feet on the drivers side. The lower control arm bushings no doubt. Has anyone took this problem to lexus? Just curious about how much. Dont care to get a bunch of aftermarket stuff.

you can get OEM bushings from lexus/toyota or you can buy supra LCA's which are exactly like the ones on the SC, since your bushings are going bad the ball joints will eventually go to so I'd say supra LCA's is the best way to go for half the price of a lexus SC LCA.
supra LCA = about $210
lexus LCA = about $390!

umm did you read my post? you can get oem bushings....BUT your ball joints will go bad eventually too and you'll have to replace the whole arm at that time and pay for the work x 2.
Burning out those old bushings will take your mechanic some time too which means lots of $$$
