Default My wrapped RCF @ Scottsdale Launch Party

Took delivery of my RCF last week and took it to my buddy's place for a vinyl wrap. Got it back this afternoon, just in time for the launch party. Here's what I did:

- matte blue metallic wrap (looks better in person and in the sun)
- brushed steel roof
- blacked out the chrome that surrounds the windows
- window tint
- painted the calipers Lexus F blue
- took off all badges and moved the 'F' to where the Lexus symbol used to be in the back

Enjoy!

Nope, didn't mention problems with any part of the wrap. We tried a few other things, but this is essentially the final product for now.

Your post title says Scottsdale. I am thinking of having XPEL put on at SmartShield on Deer Valley towards Scottsdale.
Just wondering who did your wrap if you can share the compay name.

I agree - keep the round lexus emblem or have a custom made oval surround cut with lasers.

Fantastic looking car, nice color choice - wish there were more pics of the roof!

Brilliant! You made all the right choices and it looks sharp.

Can you give us a full profile shot? 3/4 rear would be good too. More pics please!

Awesome! Absolutely very cool looking! Not a fan of the F logo there. Could keep the F in its original place and just remove the "RC"

i like it... more pics please. the reason why the F badge looks cheesy is because it sits in a huge hole... maybe fill in the hole and then place the F badge there, or make the hole smaller to where the F badge fits snug in there... or fill in the hole and leave it blank... everyone already knows it's an RC F... nah it would look cheesy no matter what... put the Lexus badge back in.
