I hear you.. Mine is all dinged up too.. The problem is, I'm more inclined to spend money on performance mods at this time...

Maybe next year I'll have the front clip re-sprayed & add a clear bra.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I'm glad to be apart of this community and looking forward to contributing where I can.

With that said - I dropped off the car today at Lexus of Clearwater (in the Greater Tampa Bay area) for 45,000 mile servicing. I've been hearing some weird clunking sound from both right rear and left rear, so had the service tech check that out. Turns out to be a blown shock on the right side. The service advisor stated that since the vehicle is in the extended warranty period, Lexus will only replace parts which are broken (as I mentioned whether they would be replacing the rear shocks in pairs... and he said no )

Additionally - I've been getting some wind noise from the sunroof area when closed and they determined that they will be replacing the sunroof seal... Let's see what they say tomorrow when I hear back from the service advisor.. Crossing my fingers!!

Regards,
Sameer

Sweet F. I also bought my F in Va. My F has a lot of chips in paint that I would like to fix. I got a quote to get front repainted but since I started going to the track, I figured I would wait since I may get more chips. Va must be the worst place for car's getting paint chipped from crap flying up from the road. I rode a plane from Orlando to Alexandria to get the F and drove it back to J'ville. It was a 23 hour round trip for me. On the way back, my windshield got hit by rock and cracked. Ice was falling from top of tractor/trailer rigs. It was insane.

Good luck and enjoy!

Looks great, congrats!

If you don't mind me asking, how much was it to get everything painted?

Thanks! I paid $1,200 to have the front end refinished.

Thanks for the price. Debating on getting a refinishing or a CF hood.
