I will stop washing and waxing when I run out of water, good health or motivation. I don't expect any of that to happen soon. My almost 10 year old Maxima looked new when I passed it down to my niece.

Hello, where did you get the painted mud guards? I found them on ebay for $160 but I believe they should be cheaper. Thanks

I found mine on ebay. They are not cheap but I understand the labor involved with sending them to a paint and body shop. http://www.ebay.com/itm/400267251569...S:1123&vxp=mtr

Thanks. Last year, I bought a set for my 2010 Toyota Camry for $80 on ebay. I just don't get why the Avalon's are so much more.

Enjoy your car, looks very sharp

You're welcome. I don't know why there is a huge price difference either. Thanks for the compliment. I am surely enjoying it. Only have about 600 miles on it so far.

I did not see a choice for painted ones on that website. I was just looking at CF license plate frames today. Seems like they are pricey.

Nice ride! Your car has just about the same things done to/for it as mine does. The funny part is that I'm also a big fan of Adam's Polishes products. Adams was one of my sponsors with my ol' "Project SuperCrew" when I ran Fordtruckworld.com a few years back. Good stuff indeed!

Now, what have I done for my Avalon lately? Well, I drove it through a car wash a few days ago for the first time in months (you mentioned motivation...). I also replace the iPod interface after the one I put in 5-years ago crapped out. Other than that - just a ton of gasoline and 2 oil changes later - I just drive the hell out of it (130k miles and counting).

Thanks. I like your car as well. I hope the drive through car was dd not have brushes beating your paint. I cringe at the thought of going through a car wash with any nice car.

I believe they are different. They are pricey but I don't regret buying them unless someone can show me a link that sells them at a lower price.

I just ordered my Americana wax, some VRT dressing and a gallon of Adam's car shampoo. I will have the whole works then. I will store the supplies inside my house because my garage is not heated or cooled.

Installed my color matched mudguards today.
