Default Maintenance Items

Hey,

You guys have been so useful in the past but this time the IS350 is actually going to be mine(Not giving it to anyone). So I am wondering what items I should get to keep my car mantained in its pristine condition. Just to show you how much I love my car I was every 3 weeks even if its snowing outside!

Here is the list I came up with...Ohh also if you know a good brand of something please do suggest...
  • Lexus Leather Cleaner & Conditioner Set - Price: 13.00
  • Cheetah Mirror
  • Clearbra
  • Center Console Protection
Anything else I missed?
  • White License Plate Lights?
  • White LED city lights
  • HALO lighting?
  • Lexus Leather Key Cover
Anyone, know how much a clearbra for the entire hood will cost me?

That's a loaded question....

- For car maintenance stuff, check out the Automotive Detailing forum
- GPS Screen protector, check out the Aerotect one...bought it and preferred it over the original screen protector I bought from Sewell.
- Clear bra, do a quick search...you'll gonna find that prices vary from location to location.

For leather I've been using the Lexus brand leather cleaner & conditioner. Can get them at the dealer or thru Sewell. There are other brands ppl have used, like someone above said, check out the detailing forum for these type's of questions.

Anyone know a good cargo box that I can fit in the drunk and still have space?

Also does the dealership sell the all-weather carpets? You think I can convince the stealership to throw in tints and the carpets?
