RNR did it yes, and since they have an hour turnaround, I opted to wait for the stickers. They said come back after 48 hours and they'd put them on.

Check with them if they have VHT Brake Gloss Clear or Flameproof Satin Clear, if not I would pick up a can and put a coat of that on after they apply the stickers..it will help to keep them on and in tack..like a coat of paint over them..

Default VVTi cam bolt

So... that stupid 10M Allen bolt stripped inside my VVTi cam pulley, drilled it out and now the threads from the bolt are just stuck there! Never seen anything like it. Highly suspect some genius used some sort of lock tite on there. NOT buying another cam shaft! Heli coils for the win!!

Took a long drive to Chicago and had a great time driving it! Haven't taken too many trips in it this year and snow will be coming soon.

I had my local Lexus dealership change the oil and oil filter in my GS 350 today. It had been exactly one year ago [today] since it was last changed. It was driven a whopping 5,419 miles in one year.
