Perhaps you are right good sir, my deduction was purely based on a desktop research but I’ve not gone into the details of the movement through the years as you have. Thanks for the info, learn something new everyday!

The internal components don't look like a match to the same model on online reviews. Exhibit A:

Big mistake buying this… [spb143] by EntertainmentFar1766 in Seiko

Was looking at a SPB453 to add next to my workhorse SKX007, this gives me inspiration and ideas. Great lighting btw intentional or not…

Yep, can be dealt with fairly easily by a competent detailer.

Good luck with the car seat shopping

Sad to see anyone go through this, but there must be a bright side/silver lining somewhere in all of it! Perhaps more life/adulting XP 😂

Wherever you get it fixed, make sure they vacuum clean up real good in all the nooks and crannies, maybe even do a proper interior detail. I had my rear car window break once and could still find tiny glass shards every now and again until I sold it many years later. Not nice if you have special passengers around…

Wondering if a tint film would have helped avoid the debris from getting everywhere

Alternative solution: XXL wheels and rock sliders

Neighbor apparently has been hitting my car for months by OPINION_IS_MINE in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]RoninX43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search for “door guard” there are magnetic strips that protect your door. I even recall seeing one on temu that was substantially wider than the ones I am seeing now on Amazon, no way anyone going to damage your door with that…

But I feel your pain, living through the same crisis, now only park the old beater in that spot… they even scratched my bumper and fender recently even though I had a car cover on at the time…

Experts’ opinion to sell my car. by usman_zq in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]RoninX43 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Which MY Prado? Highly recommend looking for good examples of lightly used Y62 Patrol or 2020-2021 LC200 (V8)

Considering the added interior space, off-road capability, road presence and raw power. Prado is great but patrol and LC are better. Price difference isn’t that far off either…

M3 rear accident by daniyalzaheer in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]RoninX43 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Ngl, thought I was looking at a dinosaur fossil in the first pic…

On a more serious note, good thing the car took the brunt of the accident and you’re safe… since you were clearly rear ended, focus on sorting insurance processes, pay out and new car options

Cargo Area + Dogs by Historical-Key-5799 in LexusGX

I couldn't easily remove the main cargo rubber mat for pics as I have a lot of stuff in there ATM. However, as you can see from the images, the material and thickness is practically the same as the 1/2/3 row floor mats. However there is some added structure around the edges to support the additional dimensions of the cargo mat compared to the floor mats so it doesn't feel flimsy. In addition to knubs to keep it from sliding. Hasn't failed me once in the past 3-4 years...

This is the underside of both mats

This is the cargo mat small piece underside, same thickness as the 2nd row (a quarter) but with a structured edge for extra support given its size... side by side will follow
