9 Attachment(s)
Hey guys!
My name is Ray and this is the build thread for my 2016 Obsidian RCF, I bought the car from Escondido Lexus on October 23rd and am very excited to mod the car. Feel free to follow me on instagram @svt_ray :)

This is the mod list which will be updated as I do things to the car.
-Meistershaft exhaust with LSR midpipe from GTHAUS
-Swift Spec R Lowering Springs

Here is the car the day I bought it:

After about a month of ownership I installed the header back Meistershaft exhaust from GTHAUS, I was skeptical about the power gains however after a few encounters and how the car ran overall I can definitely feel the power gains.

Here is an exhaust video of me revving the car:

Just this past wednesday I had my swift springs installed at my buddies shop, they ride and handle great. However .3" more up front and .1" out back would be perfect IMO.

Looks good man. You got skills!
Took me 2 tries just to do my hood. No way I would try wrapping a whole car.
What brand wrap did you use? Any complaints? Did you use any additional edge glue or adhesion promoter or just straight up wrap?
​​​​​​Btw congrats on the new car.

Thanks! I use avery dennison, I find it easier to wrap with it over 3m. The hardest part was the rear bumper underneath the tail lights, would have been much easier to remove the tail lights. I just used straight vinyl, i thought of using adhesion promoter in some parts but it seems to be fine thusfar without it.

You covered the parking sensors? How's that working out for you? Matte Black looks great, I've been debating doing the same.

Kramer Feb 7, 2017 07:54 AM

WOW! Love the wrap, really like how you left some areas uncovered showing the original shiny black! Provides depth! Nice!

Ricardorc Feb 7, 2017 08:31 AM

The wrap looks really nice man! You got skills for sure
