Ordered my NIA full kit as well. How do you like it? Any tips/tricks you learned re: installation. Thanks.

Finally was able to give my 2018 F Sport a proper detail after buying it a couple months ago. Here it is with 6 coats of Zaino Z2 Pro ( I am old school).

Took my well visors off after about 3 weeks. Now I get to redo all the vinyl on the window trim.

Washed it yesterday morning and then later on went to the beach to go watch the sunset




And then this morning I waxed it a bit (mainly to get off some of the water spots that had dried) and then added some tire shine

In Clublexus, at least 2 white GS have their rear diffusers to be white. Is there anyone painting their silver GS's rear diffuser to siliver?

I only use LEXOL. And I agree, leather seats should not be shiny.

I even use LEXOL products on my leather furniture at home. Works just as well. Plus I absolutely love the new car smell it leaves.

Same here. Lexol cleaner and then Lexol conditioner. I let the conditioner dwell for a few minutes and then wipe off the excess. No shine, no residue.

Hi GS350Boi,
Would you please share some pics? I am thinking painting my rear diffuser (2012 silver, F-sport) to siliver to make it more sporty.

Thanks

I drove it to the grocery store, and I also put gas in it. Mundane in normal life, but nothing is normal anymore. Putting gas in it is significant because I haven't done that since the first week of March!
