Finally got around to a proper detailing of the interior on the wife's 2015 Crafted Line.

That is so odd. I always assumed the Crafted Line had the piano black and aluminum trim. Yours has wood.

When I first purchased it I thought it should have a wood steering wheel, instead of the FSport wheel. With a little more research I found that the interior is correct. I bet it would look great with piano black trim.

Sorry. I am confused. I thought all of the FSports had the piano black and aluminum trim. Did yours come with wood or did you swap it with another trim?

His is a crafted line. The crafted line F Sports have the shimamoku wood.

Reinstalled Lexus Logo puddle lights that Lexus of Tulsa removed when they installed new front door panels yesterday. Quick and easy.

Finally scored some 19" 2013-2017 wheels I'd been looking for since I got the car. Once I get tires they will be going on.



Also got all 8 tube gaskets replaced. At this point, I have the job down to a science and got all 8 done, garage cleaned, and cars reparked in 45 minutes.

Got my first expensive detail. I now understand why you pay more than couple hundred to get a thorough detail. Well worth the $$$. Now the black paint pops and interior is like new. The first picture is of my garage door reflecting off my trunk

Picked up some new shoes and socks for my baby, a set of 20" staggered rims and tires, 9 x 10.5, nearly NIB absolutely pristine.
It was a 5 hour round trip drive to Chicago and back to get them but well worth it.
Been looking for several months now for a set and can not wait to put them on.
Tomorrow I will wash, de-iron, clay, wax and ceramic coat them before I install on the LS. Pictures to follow....

Last week, I personally did (accept for the tires/alignment), I was on vacation..

1. Changed the front breaks. Warped rotor all good now !
2. Used the Sea Foam spray on the air intake to try to clean up the motor a little (cleaned up the throttle body really well in the process)
3. While the car was up, checked the front end for play, solid as a rock.
4. Secured the lower panel with some screws, over time, the screws holding the plastic cover under the motor drop out, so it flaps a little... Anyone know where to get more ?
5. Replaced the front tires, and an alignment, pretty warn down..
6. Changed out the YELLOW fog lights for some white LEDs (suggested here)
7. Changed out the Nike Lights to LED as well (after changing the Fog lights, the yellow Nike lights looked even worse, these were also suggested here).
8. Washed and and really cleaned the car.
