Greg3852, how do you like the plastic dip? Was it hard to apply?

It was simple as anything. Taking out the grille wasn't hard at all. Just follow the instructions for it which I believe are in the how to thread which is HERE

When you tape, don't wait till it dries to remove it. I did and ended up having to do it all over again.

But I have had it on since March and not a single issue with it. Looks factory. And way better than how it came. I'll post up some pictures I posted with before and after pics. I love it. And one can was more than enough.

Awesome looking ride, but get rid of that "Poopy Stank" cadillac logo in the back.

Cadillac logo is officially off. Now I'm safe from anyone confusing my LS 460 for a CTS.

Not only that, the sticker alone would have made the head gasket blow. Just liken them sorry northstar engines.

I can see the Lexus dealer now:

"Sir here's why ur car's overheating". <points to the sticker>

But on the bright side, the car would be nearly theft-proof.
