Shadowline trim tape is specifically designed for that purpose.

Dang it! Happened to me on the a couple of weeks ago... I was too lady to do the fix myself so I paid to have it done... With hindsight, I still feel I could've done it myself... Saved some cheddar in the process

Anybody else hit the lock button once, turn around check out your car. Then hit the lock button again to turn off the lights?

Me too... Sometimes😜🤪. But even without hitting the lock button twice, It will turn off after 15-30 seconds...

Had a pro detail car place buff out/polish headlights yesterday. They used sand paper then heavy cut cleaner then finishing polish to get out the dull yellow. They look new again and night time brightness so much better!! I will follow up with Meguairs clear sealant.

Default Here's my 06 350

Intake, exhaust and on air. Wish I could make it a bit quicker. Aside from a pricey turbo... any suggestions?

Something a little different - 3D front door entry lights. These were incredibly easy to install. Literally plug-and-play in less than 10-seconds. Simply pop out the factory lamps in the bottom of the door panels and plug the new ones in 👍

Definitely an RR racing tune. You will notice a big mid range bump in power and much better throttle response at all speeds.

Few new things added to the car today and I thought I would share.

First is the Monster Service rear bumper diffuser/lip. I have the rest of the widebody kit but havent had the time or the ***** to start cutting into my fenders to install it.






Then recently I found a slightly scuffed factory lexus carbon fiber engine cover on ebay for about a third of the normal price and decided it was time. Has a couple slight abrasions and came out of box but was a great deal and looks amazing.




It was for a IS250 so I had to move one of the mounting cups on the back but being carbon fiber the cups are just epoxied to the back. I pried it off and moved it and reapplied the epoxy. It is slightly crooked so I will probably pop it off and fix it but loving how it looks.
