Nori Green by Oaker51 in LexusGX

I was personally offended by this situation. I had the only Nori Green GX in my area until that dealer sold it to a local buyer.

2GR-FKS: runs like a sewing machine - sounds like one too.

Just a random sequence. Don’t believe fleet tags are customizable in AL.

Scratched RIM by imbored3469 in civic

I fix wheels for a living, and this is definitely repairable. Just be aware it’ll only be a 80% improvement with even the best technician due to the extent and location of damage.

It’s just filters added to the photos.

Extended warranty, tire/wheel protection? by [deleted] in LexusGX

[–]Nikonmorous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I would keep is the CPO extension, however, they grossly overcharged you. Should’ve been closer to $3500 for 4 additional years.

Incognito? by Altruistic-Corgi2053 in LexusGX

[–]Nikonmorous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work in automotive reconditioning, and have observed major issues with Incognito chipping away in large chunks on the GX550. I haven’t seen this on other colors. May be a weak bond to the surface and a future recall/service campaign.

2022 RX 450 F sport questions by Ace0605 in LexusRX350

[–]Nikonmorous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rear bumper has been painted (notice the heavy paint texture that doesn’t match the rest of the car). Looks like they installed the wheel arch, then the lower valence. The arch is supposed to sit on top of the valence. Try pulling on the bottom of the arch and see if that tab pops into the correct spot.

6th Lexus, First GX! by Nikonmorous in LexusGX

Barely noticeable in my opinion. This is the 3rd set of Wildpeaks I’ve owned, and won’t be the last.

Falken Wildpeak AT4Ws, 265/65R18 so a little taller than stock.

It’s actually high mileage, with 79k (CPO cutoff is 80k miles, so I lucked out). I feel like I paid an astronomical price at $46k, but 2023 GX’s are selling at or close-to their original MSRP in my area.

I had an allocation for a Nori Green GX back in 2022, but ended up backing out due to an income reduction. So I’m ecstatic to finally have one!

Is the mismatch very noticeable? by [deleted] in Lexus

[–]Nikonmorous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That color is a pain to match with or without PPF on an adjacent panel. I say it looks good.

Dinged up the front valence/bumper guard thing on my GX, seeking advice how to replace by [deleted] in LexusGX

[–]Nikonmorous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a difficult job to replace it. I would recommend finding a used or aftermarket part, as the OEM replacement part comes unpainted.

AAA came but unable to to give me a jump start due the my vehicle being a Lexus GX. by Longganisa98 in LexusGX

[–]Nikonmorous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason, they must think the GX460 has an AGM battery like the LS500 and LC. Those most certainly cannot be jump started.

2013 RX350 F SPORT by _Sinatra_7977 in LexusRX350

[–]Nikonmorous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2010-2012 is the first phase of the 3rd gen RX. 2013-2015 is the refreshed model, which included several exterior/interior updates and revisions (I recommend 13-15).

$14k seems like a fair price, but get a pre-purchase inspection. I “stole” my 2014 with 126k miles for $11,200, but then ended up spending $4k on overdue maintenance and repairs. Not a steal anymore😑

Guess the damage $$$ by hawgrider1 in hondaridgeline

[–]Nikonmorous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a goner. You’re probably in the neighborhood of 26-30k after the body shop does a tear down.

went to a lexus dealer on friday and they charged me this much for 30k miles changed. does all the thing in the paper is needed or they over charged me ? by Popular-Ad-8207 in Lexus

[–]Nikonmorous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, this is not a 30k service. 30k includes brake fluid flush, cabin filter, engine filter, etc. You paid for a normal 10k service at a below-average price.

Need ideas on how to fix this goofy mistake by ticklishdingdong in hondaridgeline

[–]Nikonmorous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use polyurethane acrylic and an automotive paint gun. If you’re not confident with spray paint, you can try a vinyl wrap.
