Yup! It's a high temp heat resistant vinyl wrap made by 3M, pretty much made for caliper application. Application is same as any other vinyl as you describe except that it's a little thicker and a lot more tacky so lift and repositioning without stretching is challenging. Other than that peel, stick, heat, conform, smooth out and post heat.

Here was the glow this morning!

Did a 130 mile one way run in the morning today to visit a DMV office. At the end, it read 30.2 mpg; comfort mode throughout, outside temperature at 90F; AC on auto mode at 73F. This is including multiple signals for 7 miles at the start of the trip, few stop signs and signal stops on the way. Return trip showed 28.7 mpg.

Time to get Lexus to rename their color to Maize.
That car should be in Chicago with all the Michigan grads we have here.

After taking this picture I'm now feeling the need to lower my LC. The question is what's the best way to go about doing it.

^^^^IMHO, 20" wheels don't look right on the LC, and I suspect that's why you believe your LC needs to be lowered. Mine also came on 20s, but that didn't last long I'm not lowered - Do you think I ought to be❓
