PaPaHoFF Detailed: Lexus 06 IS250 AWD
This is actually my car and it has not had much TLC since the last time it was fully detailed around November. The car has its fair share of swirls but the weather unfortunately has been miserable these past couple of weeks. I was however lucky enough to get 1 sunny day to take some pics. My car will be entered in Hot Import Nights.

I wish I had more of the process under halogen but it was crazy bad weather and it was finals week for me so I had to do this quick in between studying.

Big Mack The radiator support on most new Lexus are like that. Also under hood on my 2009 RX 350 looks like they didn't put clear on it real dull. I will call our service rep. an ask him why they are doing this. Will get back later with answer if they give me one!!!!
