My 08 LX is doing the same, no crack however. Haven't tried to fix it yet though. Update if you figure something out!
The wood on my 2013 LX started to warp in the same spot almost immediately after I bought it. The Lexus dealer had to replace the entire door card as they couldn't order just the wood piece. Seemed like a huge waste to me.
I did not notice the warping and crack but noticed this now.
Could this have been damaged while at the dealership?
Or normal wear and tear?
Thanks!
Really common on the lx. Every one I saw had it. I tried to put the slow set super glue behind it with an index card. It didn’t work. Stayed down for only a couple days. I think contact cement would work, but I haven’t gotten back on it to try.
I was able to fix mine by removing the door panel. The wood part unscrews from the rear of the door panel. I used some 5 minute epoxy and clamped a straight edge over it while curing. Superglue or other CA glues will not work because they melt the plastic.
Harvested from the thinnest (actually only two dimensional) trees on the planet.
Does anyone know what the wood is coated with? I used glue on mine and ended up getting some on the outside surface. I want to sand off the excess glue, re-coat it, and polish it. I'm wondering if I can use clear coat for plastic.
Anyone try 5200?
Common issue on the LX, same thing on my 11.
