Default tofuprod's 2019 UX Build Thread

Picked him up August 2019. Sold my '13 LS460 as I missed having a hybrid. Not that paying for gas was exactly an issue but, I really started getting into hatches/crossovers so.. here we are.
I go through cars pretty quick, I think the UX is my.. twelfth car in the past 18 years, but this one is one of the few that is here to stay.

Plus, I used to own a 2012 CT200H F sport with Tom's rep goodies and whatnot so it was semi-nostalgic as the UX is the successor.

*I have an actual SLR camera but a lot of these I just snapped with an old phone (before getting the iPhone 12) so the quality isn't the best on some of these.

Purchased, say hello to Snowball:
August 2019


A few days later, went with FormulaOne Pinnacle ceramic tint. 35% all the way around, 50% on windshield. Installed dashcam.


September 2019
Me being particularly OCD and with a detail-bug on everything I own, I did a full paint correction for some fun. Picture sucks but was more busy 'working' than anything else.
Pretty easy to figure out my name.


Didn't do anything much after that other than a carbon vinyl wrap near the shifter area of the front console. No pics of that, but nothing crazy either that needs a photo IMHO.

2020 - just maintenance (oil change and tire rotation, pretty uneventful)

May 2021
Came across a great deal on OEM RX F Sport wheels, got them powdercoated black, waiting for OEM tires to wear out so I can put the oem rims away and mount these on.


September 2021
Decided I want to try a few things like snowboard and whatnot this year, my trunk is usually filled with tidbits of my gear for work, so I decided to get OEM crossbars and a Thule Motion XT L.
Originally went with a Thule aero setup due to the color finish of it being silver/black to match the OEM silver rails but found out after a few weeks of waiting that it was in fact being discontinued so I went with the black OEM bars instead.


October 2021
Ordered and installed black door handle covers, just to give it a try.
Side note: These are not made for the UX, but rather the ES, but they are the exact same in terms of fitment.

December 2021
Ordered (August 2021) and installed (December 2021) the '22 UX body color-matched wheel arches.
