I've seen it -.- there was a local guy here did that to his 2ls....it's just not the type of car to do that on. He did his roof and hood. IMO i didn't really dig it but to each of his own. He also claimed real carbon fiber in his for sale ads....we all know it wasn't

I have carbon fiber wrap on my rx7 it looks good but it doesnt really last. I had it for about 2 years and its starting to fade. But then again i park outside in the hot sun.

Heres a better picture when i 1st did it. there's a couple of bubbles but i did it myself. Im sure there are better grades of vinyl but i got mines on ebay for dirt cheap.

Where are you in VA btw?
Back to topic, it just doesn't look right on the ls unless someone does the whole car then idk how it looks then but just a few panels doesn't look good at all.

but yeah the problem with the wrap is the roof the ls has no definitive cut off like other cars have (ie rain gutters). so that just adds on to how tacky it'd look because it'll be hard to find a nice cut off on the roof where the vinyl would stop.
