Yes @Soap I did. Very happy with the results - I've been using my guy for the last 4 vehicles He also does the Ferrari dealer in Houston. He used Cquartz on my GX.

By the way this review is very telling

Congrats. Low mileage... about what my '12 had on it when I got it in early '17.

Sounds like a fully loaded model. I see camera on your right mirror. You can add the Multi Terrain Select (MTS) module to it too.

Color: Cashmere Beige
Sound: Mark Levinson
Options: Crawl, Descent, Laser Cruise Control, no trailer hitch
Mods: BFG KO2's. Next will be wheels. Then rock sliders. Maybe hitch or new rear bumper. No lift until after warranty.

Acrad, the MTS and the trailer hitch are the only options that are not installed. I didn't realise that MTS could be added. Thanks for the tip. I'll look it up. Muscle cars, trucks and high performance are what I have always enjoyed, but this thing is a real pleasure to drive. Love the V-8! It's a neat combo of off road capability and luxury.

Simple module swap for MTS.

You already have Crawl which can also be added but is a bit more work too.

You might be the first to add MTS to an radar cruise with side and front cameras GX. That would be really cool.

Btw. Love the gunmetal stock wheels. Wish I could buy them when you upgrade. 👍

Tecman: Also looks like a Fire Agate Pearl model retrofitted with the Saddle-Tan interior

Great find Tecman. The GX is a big vehicle! Washing my GS was so much easier /faster vs the GX. Glad I had someone else do it for sure.

Would that be Jason Cavallo by chance?

No, Russell Simms - http://personaltouchdetailer.com/

He offers mobile service so I don't have to take my cars to him, they always come over which has been a life saver!

2015 GX460 Luxury L/Certified purchased from a Lexus dealer in CO with 41,000 miles. (Options: Tow Hitch, Mark Levinson, Remote Start, 3M PPF, etc) Did the Uni-Mod last night and am scheduled to get a 3 step paint correction and 3 coats of Kenzo ceramic coating applied. Looking forward to being a contributing member of the GX forums.

3 coats of ceramic, may I ask what that costs.
Thanks

$660, it would be less had this been brand new and needed less paint correction or if I had used a lower quality coating. The person/place doing the work has a great reputation and handles several of the higher end dealerships in Houston as well as has done work on many of my co-workers vehicles.
