I checked with Yakima and your Yakima Skybox 18, # Y07336, is a fit for the factory crossbars on your 2011 Lexus RX 350. Please note that the factory roof rack on your vehicle is rated for 150 pounds so the combined weight of the box (52 pounds) and its contents cannot exceed that capacity. Consult eh vehicle owner's manual and/or Lexus to confirm the roof rack capacity.
Provided that you stay within the weight capacity and mount the box according to the instructions then it will be perfectly safe for use.
