Got some chrome door handle covers and had them wrapped in 5D Carbon Fiber. I couldn't find CF handle covers so had to make my own. I wanted handle covers instead of just wrapping the handles, so I could easily pop on and off depending on my mood haha. Now just waiting for my real CF mirror covers and spoiler to arrive to tie it all in. I'm usually not too big on carbon fiber accents and would've normally blacked out these accents but I actually like how the CF ties in the Anthracite color wheels...

Hotness! Looks great on your white car. Nice work!

Thanks! I wasn't sure and sat on all of it for about a month and then decided to at least try it out. Must say I'm pleased for now.

Looks great, nice work. How secure are they?

JWBlakk

Thanks a lot! Maaaaannnn these things aren't going anywhere! I cleaned handles with alcohol and used a heat gun to heat up the handles and the 3M before installing. I tried with all my might and couldn't just pull them off. They also mold to the handles anyway without the tape so they're all good.

I kinda wish I had gotten white. My GS is black and my god is it a dirt magnet. I can't even wash the car without having to wipe it down with 20 microfibers.

JWBlakk

Yeah I love white but don't let it fool ya, it picks up and shows tons of dirt too...especially on the bottom where the tires kick dirt up lol. White just doesn't show all the little dust.

Thats a good look bro - looks black from far and has a nice finish when viewing up close

There you go again with your crazy sideways pictures. I still have a kink in my neck from your last thread....wth

I thought at first I wasn't going to like it, but I think it turned out well. Good job. Now go work on your picture taking skills....

Very nice

JWBlakk

Thanks man!

Haha! I know my picture taking skills suck. I got everything and thought I wouldn't like it either so hesitated. Must say I'm pleased how they came out...thanks!

Thanks a bunch!

Sweet 👌🏻would add a front bumper lip wrapped in carbon fiber. Would look very good.

I see the car is coming along, any other planned mods for summer!

That's a good look I just used some of the CF 5D wrap on my roof wing... it is pretty damn close to looking like real CF...

JWBlakk

Thanks! Appreciate it. Yeah I'm definitely adding a lip and am on the fence about it being CF. I also found a Skipper "type" lip that comes with a CF finish already! I just don't want to be one of those guys who overdoes the carbon fiber lol.

Thanks man, trying to catch up to you guys Haha. I definitely have more planned in no particular order: Tint, Black out roof and roof spoiler, Drop, CF mirror covers on the way, front lip, CF spoiler (that'll be it for the CF...don't wanna overdo it haha), painted calipers with Lexus logo, exhaust, also have JDM window visors on the way, will eventually switch from 19" to 20" wheels with custom Lexus centers, Lexus tire valve caps, possibly white tire lettering (kinda scared to do this but it looked good on a few GSF's and F Sports I saw), and I'm sure I'll think of more along the way lol. Making this a slow build so that I will stay enthused for a while...plus the wife gets jealous when I do too much to the car too soon!

Thanks and I totally agree! Even the shop was shocked at how the CF look of the 5D wrap turned out, they normally use a matte CF wrap. Have a pic of the roof wing???
