picked my car up today and they did a pretty good job wrapping it. i mean its not 100% the best but it looks good and they did it for free since they did my roof so i cant really complain. its vinyl so i can always remove it if i get tired. anyway here are the pics of the trim







and some shots of the roof.





sorry for the bad pics, i went to grab the mail and did some quick shots with the iphone.

Itll be so hot if the gs was black, and all the chrome trim was painted red.. then get some volks te37 time attacks with the red strip on the lip, red big brake kit, and you got the lexus version of the a team mobile!!! HOTNESS!!!! And you powdercoat the exhaust piano black too!!! GOTDAMN!!!!

Cheapest way to test out to see if you like it or not is by using "electrical tape"!!!

Usually I do not like chromes on the vehicle; so I did that to my S500, had it on for over 3 years no problem!!!
