she is a beauty sir! Congratulations. I love the pearl white color. Mine is also the same color and with exact same wind deflectors on the doors. I was not sure about putting the bug deflector on hood, was not sure how it would look like. But now I'm gonna go for it.
Curious, does your LX has center console refrigerator ?

congrats. Good luck on working out the financing. I think you got a great price. I also have a white lx with tan interior. I wish interior was black since it hides stains better.

Wow 😕 that’s sad. I can understand all the excitement got turned into anxiety.
Try to convince the dealer to take it back.
I hope all your issues get resolved. It’s always best check vehicle repair history via Lexus drivers portal..

I am still debating as one body shop guy told me if you take it off than whole bumper will need to be pained or replaced due to holes in it.

Thanks for the pictures. Sorry my phone was not displaying the pictures for some reason. The tires look mean. I will be changing the tires on my LX around fall, i may just get the ones you have. They looks seriously capable. Hows the road noise ? Can you share their specs?

Truck feels more planted to the road with these..
In today’s snow here in Connecticut, they felt super grippy and I didn’t experience loss of traction which was really good. These are my first AT tires and so far so good.
