    Had this one come and ask for an exterior only detail because hes selling it. We kept getting pushed back because of the weather but we finally had a nice sunny day. This thing was as expected for a 97 and for a used land cruiser. Interior looks like it rolled off the showroom, just normal wear and tear but in great overall condition. The exterior was on par with the FJ i detailed not too long ago. He vinyl wrapped the hood and part of the fenders as well. Heres the process and before and after pics.
