Has anybody painted or wrapped their brake calipers with the OEM Luxury wheels?
If so please post a pic.

I love the look of the reflective wrap and want to do it, but would love to get an idea of what it looks like with the OEM Luxury wheels.

I went to a shop for a quote to wrap my calipers in the reflective wrap, they quoted $600! Insane!

Here's a few really (and I mean, really) rough edits to give you an idea of the look:

My friend wraps calipers and it's nowhere close to 600 but he's in Mass. He did a moderators (bigblack06) calipers in reflective blue

Thanks AJLex19. That is all I need to see. I think it looks good. I know it doesn't show as much as with the larger more open wheels but I still think it will add a nice touch. I am leaning towards the dark blue reflective so that it is not to much normally but will give a little extra when it is hit with the right light.

And probably going to use the plain white Lexus Logo. Not sure where bigblack06 got his reflective logos. Will check with him on that may be an option.

My plan was to just do it my self. I am sure it will be very time consuming but that install video from Ikon did not make it look to bad. Then you are only looking at like $50 bucks for materials plus heat gun and several hours of your life.

When I get a chance I will try to take a pic of the seams and cuts he made. Just for warning he did take a while to finish it and the masi took even longer due to the bolts in it. Your back will be the hardest rather than the front.

Did you do your front and rears bigblack?

Looks can be deceiving although $600 is a stretch. I paid $250 for my caliper wrap.

Can the calipers ever get hot enough to ruin the wrap?

That's what I was wondering.
