Vinyl wrapped the front bumper piece in gloss black. It was my first time using 3M knifeless tape, the left side turned out pretty trash because I pulled it off first. The right side turned out decent.

Thanks! I'm loving my mods so far. Will need to re-wrap my chrome trim eventually, but still digging it.

Car looks great! What procedure and paint did you use for the calipers if I may ask?

Got back from Charlotte and there was some light left, wanted to give it a quick rinse, but decided to install some 3M Door Edge Guards and wrap one side of the side mirror.

Installed a vinyl sticker over the front Lexus emblem for a smoky effect to mimic the black pearl emblem.

Stuck on a cheap black F-Sport badge from ebay, not sure how I feel about it. Might take it off, or wait for it to fall off by itself...whichever comes first.

Yeah, was already on Amazon shopping for Goo Gone 10 minutes after I stuck it on. Would've probably felt 5% better about it had the badge actually went on flat. Since that area of the trunk is curved, the top left corner has a bit of gap.
