I agree, Tungsten Pearl has a nice sparkle to it with the pearl. Adding a bit of shine on top just makes it pop more. For me the LED headlights combined with the superchrome rims, OE visors, OE license plate holders, black interior and Lloyd Rubbertite mats give my RXh a more sporty look. I don't have a wood steering wheel or shifter either. It's just the way I like it
Did you special order your RX because I searched for months and finally gave up because I couldn't find an RX without wood steering wheel that had Nav. Our previous RX400h was perfect because it didn't have wood trim at all.
No, I don't play soccer!

But you do have that cool gray two-tone interior. I wish I had that myself. My 450h was a special order. It was the only way to get the sport package, LED headlights, ML, HUD, and pre-collision system/dynamic laser cruise control. Definitely well worth the four month wait. I actually haven't owned any RXs with the wood steering wheel or shifter. The less wood the better IMO. And if it wasn't so darn expensive, I'd change the rest of it to a different color or even material. Next time.

The way you cleaned your RX is pretty impressive. I usually clean my car once every 2 week. I owned my first Lexus past 11 months. I would like to know what precautions do I need to take before I remove the dust covers from the engine and what precautions should I take while cleaning the engine. Did you use any detergent or just water and towel ?

Just need something small like a ball point pin or something to push in the center portion of the clips to get them to release. Careful no to break or lose them.
I just sprayed some engine detailer in a microfiber cloth and wiped the dirt away.
