Yeah they do. It's the little things that bother me because my eyes always seem to draw to those. Thanks

Lexus is the Silent Killer. A smooth criminal, if I might say so.

Off Topic: I was thinking the name Noisy Boy can work because of it's direct injected/high pressure "ticking" sound. I get so many customers driving in with their new-to-them IS asking if this "ticking" sound from the engine is normal and how it's not like their other Lexus' before. So then I have to turn on a couple of loaner cars to show them that the sound is normal. Now it'll be Noisier Boy with the exhaust?

Hahah you guys are great "Noisy Boy" comes from the movie real steal which is the samurai robot that I think is badass I gave my car that name because of my aftermarket sound system and the exhaust not the ticking lol

Hey, so you mentioned you had little scratches here and there in your leather, and they took care of it for you... can you explain in details? I have many scratches in the what seems to be very fragile leather from the previous owners, and I would like to know how I can fix that and or how much it'll cost if I can't do it myself.
Thanks in advance and your car is coming along amazingly!

^^^ Yes I have some scrathes in my door handle and dash that surrounds center ac vents and navi. I dont know what exactly thye did but you cant notice anything unless you really look. Where they fixed the leather it is smooth as to the rest of the dash which is textured. Same thing for the door. I dont know how much it would cost as to I took it in for service at Lexus and i pointed it out to them and they took care of it for me along with the scheduled service
