If I remember correctly, the visors were ordered from OMAC USA INC in Houston, TX. They were somewhere in the $35-40 range(included shipping). Locating items on the OMAC website is fairly confusing, but the site lists a phone number (281) 501-1476.

As for sunshine, we've had plenty,. Several weeks without any rain, until a light spritz today. Just enough drizzle to get the acacia pollen to show in the droplets and get my OCD triggered...

Sorry, I don't have an overall list of mods, just what's in this thread. I'm fairly random as to the progress, jumping all over the place for progress. Mostly they keep me busy and out of trouble...

Another trip to the car spa to wash off the acacia pollen...

This is what happens when you arrive 15 minutes before they close. All hands on deck...


VIOLA!!! All clean and shiny again...

The first thing I do/get when I get another vehicle.

They're great.

I don't remember seeing them, as available, in my early searches for UX250 accessories...

I've had replacement emblems sitting on my workbench for a month or so waiting for WeatherTech to get them produced. Otherwise I would have them installed already... I've had WeatherTech floor liners in all my recent vehicles and love them!!!


I got a front row set of the floor liners ordered, and they just shipped today, with an expected delivery by this weekend or Monday...

I found them >>HERE<<

Lots of choices of manufactures and custom emblems also available. I found them cheaper, just some of the reviews made the cheaper priced version questionable.

They're definitely there. I bought my '19 in August of 2019. Bought them a week later. Not sure if me living 30 mins away from the weathertech facility has anything to do with it.

THANX!!!

Careful with the emblem, it skews the Adaptive Cruise Control and brake warning to the right. I get brake warnings occasionally when I pass big rigs on my right, even with the sensitivity dialed down to the minimum...


Maybe I'm just lucky, I missed the snowy neighborhood in San Jose...

Picked up my WeatherTech floor liners today...


Replaced the WeatherTech emblems with the Lexus emblems...



I should probably give the glue a day or two to dry before I slip them into my UX...

These WeatherTech floor mats are so easy to install, even a caveman can do it...

Great idea to swap those out to the Lexus decal. Nice touch. Understated, which is what I personally like.

Being of the personal opinion chrome/shiny stuff belongs on classic cars...

I took the first step in deleting the brushed/shiny stainless steel from my UX, the grill trim/smile. This takes my UX a step closer to my preferred white/black color scheme...



If you are someone that had trouble coloring inside the lines, as a child, or as an adult, I would advise against attempting this mod. {sarcasm}This mod took hours to complete with a permanent felt marker.{/sarcasm}

Up next are the brushed stainless roof rails...
