Default Roof Wrapped and 22 in Rims 2016 Lexus NX 200t

I just put the rims on and got the roof/side mirrors wrapped. I'm going to get a car wash this weekend and take some more pics. The pictures don't do it justice, it looks so good in person. I love this car!

Nice, when you get chance if you can post a pic with side profile, would like to see how it looks and sit with the 22's.

Looks good!
How much did it cost to wrap your roof? Was considering doing it to mine.
I'm in nyc so it should be similar to your pricing I think.

Thanks guys!

I called about 20 different companies about the wrapping and the prices ranged from 500-800 dollars. At that point i basically gave up and said i would just try it myself because there's no way i was paying that much for just a wrap. I bought the materials and attempted to wrap the side mirrors but it was a complete fail. I then gave up completely until recently.

I saw this guy at my gym with a Lexus IS and he had the roof wrapped. I asked where he got it from because i've been looking to do it on my car.

Turns out he got it from this kid who lives around the area and he only charged 180 dollars! I got the kid's contact info right there, made an appointment the next day and the rest is history. The total came to 240 because i got the side mirrors done as well, which is completely fine compared to 800 dollars i was originally quoted for.


I'm thinking about wrapping the door handles next but i'm not sure.

Roof wrap makes a nice change and you definitely got a good deal. Post new pics and gloss up those tires

Sorry, I don't care for the black side mirrors. I know all the F-sports come with them but to me they stick put like sore thumbs especially on white. I much prefer color co-ordinated side mirrors, they look more upscale to me.

For the roof, I can barely see it in your photos. Personally, I don't see why one would bother, it doesn't seem to add anything to me.

As you can tell I'm old school. The black wheels I guess are the trend now but I like chrome. The more the better. I'm thinking of adding chrome door handles
