It looks beautiful. And it looks like a custom color not offered by Lexus.

dude it looks just like a brand new paint job. I have never seen wrap in person or touched it or felt it. Does it even feel like any different.

If you don’t know that it’s a wrap, you wouldn’t be able to tell.
It is a full wrap (takes 5 days to complete), which includes all areas like inside the doors etc. - wherever you would have seen the paint, you now see the wrap.

that's awesome. How many pretty pennies we talking about? I might have to do this in the future when my paint chips drive me up a wall.

Well here in the UAE, where labor costs are extremely low it is around USD 3,000.

That is quite the pretty penny. At least it looks like it cost that much .
