haha... i tried that... i went to one of those self service car washes and it didn't help... they just keep coming back after disappearing for two seconds...

I have a beautiful black on black 02 is300... one night i parked it on a random side street where a sprinkler sprayed the hood of my car leaving water spots that would not go away. I took the car to get detailed and waxed and fortunatly they got it all out but it cost me around $300... so i tried to be careful but again somehow another spinkler attacked my poor baby... is there anything i can use to get these water spots out other than paying another $300??? this happend last night so im hoping i can get them out since its still fresh...

haha... yea.... yeaup it did.... as soon as i sprayed the clear coat on black turned right into gunmetal silver... ill post up some more pictures of the finished product as soon as i can if you want to have a closer look....

i used black caliper paint and clear engine enamel paint only because of its high heat tolerance. Both are made from dupli-color and both are with ceramic....

Nice look. So that's what the silver looks like. I often wondered how that would look. How long ago did you paint yours?

i actually painted them black but when i sprayed the clear coat it made it look silver gunmetal...(maybe because it was for the engine but it was extra high temp) anyway i liked the outcome so i just left it like that.... but i painted them about 1 month ago and it still looks like i just did it

i painted them with the caliper paint and clear coated them and so far no probs...

yea i have the same problem but def not paying to get a new cd player.... atleast the cassette player still works hah...

what does it mean when i press the load button for the cd player and it starts clicking and clicking but never gets into the load setting... i just goes back to the radio. No error signs pop up either.

I had the same problem. Had to go to the lexus service and i think its like $350 for each light sensor. Theres one in the front and one in the back. good luck
