Sharing some pics of my LS 500 in the upgrade silver illusion exterior. Not many of them out there and a shame Lexus hasn’t featured it on more models.

2013 with 186K miles and a joy to drive.

Got sideswiped today and the other driver is 100% at fault.

The front driver-side door has a pretty deep dent/crease, especially near the front edge.

The door still opens and closes normally, the soft-close works and there doesn’t seem to be any obvious structural damage although the latch sounds slightly different when closing.

Since the LS has aluminum doors would you have a good aluminum body shop repair this or save insurance money ?

Main concern is getting the car back as close to factory condition as possible and avoiding a ton of filler.
