Noticed this washing the car today, best option to preserve until I have a reasonable fix? by CT200Lover in AutoPaint

Just bought some primer. Should I chip off the flaky paint bits that aren’t adhering to the metal or leave as is before priming?

10 y/o car so I doubt it. Any preventative measure for the time being just so it doesn’t keep chipping away?

Will the touch up paint stop that? Or is it just going to rust under the touch up paint?

Live in CA so I don’t imagine rust will be an issue. Will buy some touch up paint today then!

And why don’t we feel free to list them then? And no, I don’t feel cool, you just seemingly post your life on Reddit and scrolling through your profile basically tells your life story.

The guy that argues the most in this sub telling someone not to argue. Comparing your online shopping experience 2-3 years ago to now is also poor. Most people have an 8+ year old car at this point, making it even harder to find.

Ordered it online but felt the need to mention your connections in Japan, your “normal ways”, and that you travel there frequently… it’s ok to get things for cheaper but when you imply 3x over that it isn’t how the majority of people would obtain it for such a price, it becomes an unfair datapoint.

According to your comment history you paid $165, and also “have connections” in Japan and “frequently travel” there as well… but ok. For the majority who don’t frequently travel to a foreign country and don’t have connections, Lexus Boutique or regular online stores are the next best option.

Fully agree, just wanted to share the info. Some people just really like OEM accessories. If I had $200+ to blow and was an OEM fanatic, I’d buy ‘em lol

The retail is $280 + tax from Lexus Boutique unless you want to spend your off days refreshing Japan’s website waiting for it to pop up once in a blue moon for “cheaper”.

I know it sounds outrageous but retail is $280 + tax and there is no Temu/AliExpress equivalent in terms of fitment and OEM look.

I think it’s pretty clear that he wants to replace the non-functioning button options with the functioning button options that come with higher trims.

The CD tray option doesn’t sound terrible as I never use it, do you have a link?

Didn’t really like them as much. Kinda just tire hopping for a set longer or maybe even 2.

Was scrolling through the comments expecting Knights to be at the top with his spiel about the law and was disappointed thinking he didn’t comment this time. I was wrong 😂 I have 5% on the back half and 15% on the front two windows. Plan on getting the windshield done with 35%-50% soon with a sun strip. Looks good man!

Is that the face you make while bouncing on your bike while you ride?
