What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

I finally UToobed it and was able to turn off the digital aspect and just use it as a normal mirror

Wait--it's like a 2-way mirror, that if it's not projecting the digital image it works as a normal mirror? I presumed it would just be a screen that functions as a "mirror", without actually being a mirror. I guess I should look that up.

EDIT: Whodathunkit:

Like you said, it doesn't matter what it is, in the end. Unlike Karl, I don't see why that couldn't be anodized aluminum, it just looked so bright I presumed it was plastic, that was before you mentioned what the material was.

I can't find a single reference to it actually being anodized aluminum and I have to admit after looking closely at it that is must be a plastic of some sort, although the finish really looks and feels like a nicely anodized piece of work

There are some door panels that have very poorly finished edges as well, with flashing from the molding process that wasn't dealt with very well

I don't know what it is about Toyota/Lexus plastic panels but more often than not a large door panel will have at least 2 distinct "patches" of material that looks like the material that went into the melting and extruding chambers of the injection molding machine weren't homogenous enough, or the molds weren't uniform enough in temperature

I have spent hours on various T/L cars/trucks chasing my tail trying to make a door panel look uniform

Been watching some videos on Polish angel wax, and really thinking about getting it as a test for the line. Wondering if anyone has any input on the brand.

You call that a computer screen? Hmmm, could be worse................................................





And generally EVERYTHING has to be done through the screen, there are only 6 buttons and most of them don't control anything of importance. The lack of a/c control is the most frustrating part of it, very distracting. I liken digital dashboards to digital watches, in no way are the more premium than a traditional set of dials.

That's wild how they just blended one screen into the other
