What makes you so "sure" the stickers won't stay adhered on a hot day? They are probably PVC Vinyl. I see PVC Vinyl stickers on cars every where, quite common. I have PVC Vinyl stickers on my black bicycle, fenders and frame. The bike sits outside in the hot Florida sun. The stickers are still there. It's been a few years now.
I have that same Covercraft custom made sun shade for my ES 350. It's doing fine after 4 +1/2 years. I am going to attempt the same with the vinyl Lexus logo and lettering, it's a first class look. I only hope I can do as expert an application as Mhobizal did on his sun shade. I see Mhobizal is in Texas...Hot as hell there, like Florida.

I finally got my stickers to work. I used a small bit of adhesive in the areas that didn’t stick and it looks great!

biggest mistake was not realizing I was leaning my elbow on it. Leaving those indentations. Hopefully they ease up with time. Otherwise I'm quite happy with how it turned out. Hope it lasts. I plan to keep it like this for at least a couple days to really settle and cure. The northeast has had ridiculously hot weather lately

To all that are asking how the logo holds up.
Mine is 4 years old and still looks good.
In case you’re wondering, I live in Houston, enough said about hot weather.

Roxy, Albo - I finally took a picture of mine. It looks fine now, and I live in SoCal so I am sure it will hold up fine in the heat....
