It seems like in every pic of an ISF I've seen, the drivers side window controls look like they're worn. Did they ever look new?

Anyone else notice this?

Not sure what you're referring to. You have any links to examples you could point to?

Maybe because the driver, who is always in the car uses it more? Similar to the driver seat being more worn than the other seats?

I'm guessing it's just me then, but even on extremely low mileage cars the window controls look kind of dingy.

Are you complaining about the style of the controls itself? That pic looks fine to me, maybe a little dusty...

Looks fine to me too. It's supposed to be matte

I know what you mean, I used to think that way but if you look closer, you will note that the button like that. At first I thought it was fading or worn but all the IS button like that, I believe.

^^^yeah, I guess that's what I'm thinking as well, that's just how they look, kind of matte and dingy.

You could always bedazzle it.

The writing on the gas cap also looks like it is old and weathered

^^^ Total deal breaker right there.

Bedazzle the whole pizazzle.

The controls are subjected to being pressed all the time and our fingers have oil and dirt on them. Buttons can be cleaned with some orange cleaner, should look new after that.

Make sure to spray cleaner on the cloth and not on the buttons themselves.

I am a lot more pissed off about the seat memory buttons losing all semblance of their original markings.

As nice as the ISF is, it is still built on an entry level Lexus platform and it seems to me that the quality of materials reflect this. I am quite disappointed that my ISF with barely 50K km is showing what I would consider excessive wear on the seat bolster as compared to my 20 year old (430K km) GS400. Granted the ISF seats are shaped differently but the fact remains the leather couldn't hold a candle to the GS seats in terms of quality. The same could be said about the paint quality, trim, plastic components, etc. Nevertheless I suppose most of us bought this car more for function than form/fit which tends to offset the other disappointments.
