I think the flat blue looks great - nice choice!

Not a fan of the F logo at the rear, but it's your car!

I agree, F logo is not a good look for me either. But it is his car. Roof looks nice!

Props on the work, they did a great job. Love the color as well.

Agree with previous comments regarding logo.

Not a huge fan of the blue calipers. Reminds me of neon lighting in the wheel well. I wouldn't went black and had a Lexus color matched blue sticker to stand out from the black,

I wish Lexus would offer that color!

Wow that turn out nice do you mind tell us how much it cost to do the whole car wrap like that? Would that wrap strong like 3m clear bra to protect the original paint?

Not at all....a good full body wrap will run between 2000 and 3000, depending who you go to. A good wrap guy will wash the car, clean it with alcohol, then do the wrap process which takes 3-5 days. Ideally he'd be able to offer 3M, Avery, and Hexis, although there are other wrap manufacturers as well. He should also tell you the good and bad about different finishes (matte, satin, brushed, etc) and what would look good on a particular car.

Most importantly, make sure he has a big and impressive portfolio. My RCF was in the bay along with a McLaren and a Bentley (he only does one at a time, but they were waiting in the wings). So make sure he's done many high end cars before he touches yours.

And finally, yes, it will totally protect the original paint job.

It's not a huge hole....look at the pic a little closer. The circle you're referring to where the old "L" logo used to sit is actually popped outwards. It looks awesome in person.
