Believe it or not, this is after 1 month of ownership and 3500miles. Apparently, the car was washed 3 days before it was brought to me :confused
Wash
Clay
Wash
Swirl Remove
AIO
Wax
Tires, Wheels, Windows
And then, after some debate, decided to go ahead and help my buddy out with a debadging. Looks on hell of a lot better IMO.

Typical nice Lexus paint with very little orange peel. Great job with the detail and it looks much better without the badges (especially the dealer badge).

I love the debadged look. Those dealer badges just look so tacky!
Yeeppp...he was a bit concerned on people thinking it's a is250, but in the end he loved it.
By the way, it's a GREAT drive. Im extremely impressed with the thing and it looks gorgeous at night. Especially with the 20% tint.
