if you want a professional and proper fit genuine, then lexus only..

otherwise you could try hadrians panels if they do anything for your car, but its a hit or a miss (mostly a miss) to having a perfect fitting panel made for your car as they are pattern panels.

what year of car is it? if its a newer shaped model chances are its dealer only... and any insurance company or repair centre that you go to will quote dealer prices for all parts to the insurance.

lexus = expensive but genuine and 100% guaranteed perfect fit

hadrian = lot cheaper but not as good a fit as OE panels.

My mate needed a catalytic converter for his GS and it was a LOT cheaper from Lexus than aftermarket and it had a much longer warranty too, so don't assume that OEM is always more expensive.
