setagw Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Could somebody with a 2004 GX470 please check the front passenger side wheel well and tell me if there are some long oblong cutouts on the front of the wheel well? I've had the GX for about 2 months and just noticed this (looking from the wheel toward the front of the vehicle) There are 4 or 5 holes and I can see right thru. I'm just trying to see if this is normal or if some mounting plate or cover . fell off. I don't recall seeing this before. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smaislin Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Mine has the same. Looks like some sort of venting. It does not exist on the driver's side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how it is ever since I first cleaned that wheel well back in jan 03! There are like 4 strips of cutouts there. If you notice, the plastic splash guards are bigger on the rear left well than the right well! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denslexusgx470 Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Correct. The Gx and the Prado are EXACTLY the same, except different "badges", "clothing", and "appearance". ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
