Has anyone installed front clear vinyl wrap on there ES. Are you glad you did or wish you did. Does the paint chip easy on the newer ES.

 

Yes. Had PPF on my car basically since day 1 and two years later it was the best purchase for my car I could've possibly made next to window tint.

 

Same, but mine has been on for five years. I think it’s a good investment in the long term appearance of the car.

 

Had $1,000 3M see through bra application done on a previous new car. Like $2,000 today. Looked good and protected paint. Held up for a while but after about 4 years it discolored slightly but enough to be noticeable. So be aware of that on a potentially long term ownership car like a Lexus.

 

There were 3 instances where I came out to see that someone had swiped and scuffed my bumper. If it weren't for the PPF, I would've needed a new paint job. If you care and love your car, future you will thank you later.

 

Always have it on our cars.

It is more noticeable on white.

Never had any road rash or chips. Our IS was 8 years old and it still looked good. We hand wash our cars.

 

Do it! Well worth the expenses. And do the full front because the 1/3 hood doesn’t look good IMHO.
