    That is the plan, along with the cover over the radiator, and I'm looking to get the cover for the HV off the Lexus

    I installed some $20 Costco front seat covers today. I think maybe I am less ambitious than a lot of you, but I do enjoy seeing the things you guys do. My husband was thinking the wheels would look good pulling off the covers and adding center caps like a lot of you have done, and I was like, "nah, I'm good." If I ever curb my wheels, I bet that's the time I will revisit the allure of the wheels in their more natural state. Not that I don't think it looks nice. Just nah. Conformist is what I am. Except for the $20 Costco seat covers. That was a total rebel move right there. Oh, and the back seat dog hammock cover. They kinda sorta match in that they're both gray. Win!

    Nothing today but I installed my JDM signal mirrors last night. This mod is by far the best mod to my car. Gone broke today furniture shopping. :(

    Need to see pics! If you have day and night pics with the light on it would be great.

    I want to buy a set this but priorities call for coilovers and wheels first.

    I recently have an accident in my Prius and the bumper had to be replaced. Yesterday I noticed that two pins were missing so today I installed them.

    For the record, if you are looking for a body shop in South Florida avoid this one:

    Lexus of Pembroke Pines
    16150 Pines Blvd, Pembroke Pines, FL 33027
    (954) 443-2020

    They did a crappy work, missing emblems, missing pins and the bumper and fender were not well align. I understand that all these were cosmetic issues but a body shop is all about cosmetics and full restoration.

    Car got vandalized last night. Good news is the paint was water based. Took 4 hours to get off. Had to remove the wheel to get the paint out of the lug holes. 5 cars got hit in my neighborhood. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Ouch! You did a really good job bringing the wheel/front windshield back to life. Did they ever catch the vandals?

    Interesting what I was told by OC Sheriffs. They said because the paint comes off, it's not "vandalism". I feel bad for the other cars in the neighborhood. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    That's ridiculous.

    If it fell off, or washed away by itself in the next rainfall, then I might agree. Since this act required individuals to spend their money and/or time to remove it, makes it malicious defacement, which by definition is vandalism.

    Hopefully karma will bite those kids back. :(!

    Great job getting the paint off. I'm seriously surprised, thou. I thought OC police would charge/give tickets for anything.
