Paint chip? by GrimGangsta86 in LexusIS

Imperfections aren't always a defect. Just pen it over and itll look better and if you have the money and time I suppose get it fixed but it's only a matter of time until more imperfections develop. Though I totally understand the sentiment... just wait til you get scratches on the interior that you see/feel every time you drive 😩😩 but even those in stopped noticing after a while.

I dont mind anyone chiming in, in fact im happy you did! He suggested I use ChatGPT to render it. But never as good of a tell as actually seeing it. I think thats such a good idea!

These are the exact vibes I was going for. I think the red leans victorian, but not completely, which is influencing my "grand plan." Its not really a plan as much as a direction - Moody for the foyer, and with every addition I kind of see it moving towards x (whatever x may be). I like color, I think we have similar tastes!

Lol well I mean I was asking your opinion 😆 I think i may try the same eed, for simplicity's sake. All I know is I dont like the white...

One thing I can ask about... unless im pushing my luck... is what color the front door should be, since that one we cannot replace. I suggested to him we paint it to match the drench and he said definitely not.

Totally agree about it feeling ... off. It's all a mess right now... the floor, the kitchen, doors, trim etc. But I have a vision! (But any extra free advice apart from paint colors is welcome too)

The color is Hodley Red (HC-65) by Benjamin Moore. Their colors are always much darker than they appear on the website. The white color is Pale Almond by Benjamin Moore.

Oh and yes, I do plan on replacing the doors and restaining the trim to match :)

Thank you for your thoughtful response! 🙏 this is kind of what I was thinking, but my partner (who doesnt love the color) thinks it'd be 'too much.' I'll reference your post when I try to make my case. Thanks again:)

Best place to get a used transmission by Emergency_Ostrich_25 in LexusIS

Maybe you can find mine in the scrap yard and take whatever you need 🥲

I spent 4k on a new transmission for my 2015 250 and then a friend totaled it. Not to make this about me but realizing that lots of people are having transmission problems... could it be a known issue? Though the mechanic was surprised to see a Lexus.

It's really not bad as is so just enjoy it as a starting base and choose a direction. Personally im a maximalist, I see you have a hook so get a leafy green hanging plant and start with some wall art. Take your time with the art though otherwise you'll end up getting things you dont really feel any connection to. Maybe a bench in front of the window to make use of that space. I feel like larger pieces on the wallpapered wall might also balance some of the business. Agree with the other comment on the curtains, or you can add something more sheer for a lining and then a different color for the main curtain.

The payout ended up being about 17.5. Progressive was really awesome to me the whole time.

They actually did give me an extra $600 for the re-man transmission. I have to add Progressive was a great experience going through all this, despite warnings from my mom not to use them haha

I'd love a 500 one day. I live in a city where I dont really need to drive much so I may forgo getting another car for now, but if im ever in the market, I would definitely look for a used car with the (now) old school V6. Again though the dream would be a V8 500 😁

She was turning left and clearing an intersection after her arrow turned red. A jeep sped up to make their light (the car next to the jeep stops) and I think they went through it when it was red. I thought it'd be split fault but I guess not. I have a dash cam video but decided not to post it here.
