interesting look. Appears like a Range Rover... Given you're located in AZ, functionally I would have left the oem white paint on top and pulled a horizontal line from the headlight edge rearward.... making everything below this line black wrap this way it stays coolest temperature wise and also blends with the bumpers better, but if you're happy that's all the matters. Definitely stands out!

Many cars out there in this scheme lately, RAV4, Bronco, Jeep, Rover, even a 2021 RX at the Lexus dealer. I've played around with my IR thermometer in the AZ heat over the last 25 years. Exterior color matters very little. And most importantly, if the wife's happy (it's her DD), that's all that matters!

Paint Correction, Eliminate Chrome and Interior Detail
Just bought my first GX feel free to follow my journey I will be posting every week. The ***** is need of some good TLC which what I will be doing first before customization. First things first was a professional detail and paint correction. The milf that had this car was basic with the maintenance and probably barely washed her but at least the service was always thru Lexus Dealer.

Blinds4cars added to all 5 windows. Completely easy installation. Great craftsmanship by Nigel.

Yes, the fifth window is the hatch.

Thanks - I have the other brand in mine but they don’t make one for the hatch. I’m not sure if that fold would work well with my wicked OCD. Might order one. Appreciate it.

Replaced front upper control arms, front strut assemblies with springs and rear shocks and springs with takeoffs from a GX at 1800 miles. Feels like a new truck again. I need to address possible worn steering components but a huge difference in ride and handling.

New guy here! Just bought a 2019 GX and loving it. So far I made a mount for a 1" ram mount, to mount my phone, and I'm about half way done with a 3/4 roof rack that bolts onto custom mounts with 6 bolts, but will probably stay in place all the time. I'll post pics later. Reason for the roof rack is I traded in my 07 Sequoia and there's about half as much cargo space in the GX. I got the captains chairs in the back and we carry extra people sometimes, so my wife won't let me install the third row delete kit. I'll also be adding some USBs to the back of the center console for the little people and their things. Also thinking of building a lockable gun safe into the center console. I need to search to see if anyone's done that.
Cheers!
