Default New wheels and wrap on the ES

the wrap was done today and it’s looking HOT






So the wheels came yesterday had them put on thismorning
Monday car goes In for the wrap job
The blue Lugnuts that I got I guess the outer diameter was too big for them I don’t fully understand Lugnuts but the shop told me I need to find more of a tuner style log if that makes sense so now I’m trying to decide on whether I want to go with a black log find another blue log or maybe a red wag because the red lug if I find it might go good with the red valve stem cap






I actually should’ve asked them if they could pop the center Off of the wheel and try and see if the Lexus OEM center Fits I’m gonna try and find one of my trim tools to pop it off without damaging it and then see if the OEM Lexus center Kat FL it’s on the wheel and if it does I’m gonna order some black Lexus center caps or like a dark charcoal color center

Well, at least you won't be mistaking your ES for anyone else's in the parking lot.

I like them. They wouldn’t be my style, especially on that color vehicle, but they are really sharp. If they were available in the right shade of red, they would look awesome on our NX.

because
tomorrow im taking the car into the SPA for a Wrap Job then its going to look hot with the new wheels.
I am thinking im going to get some black lug nuts and find or have some caliper covers paint or made to be a blue that matches the blue on the wheels.

The chrome lugnuts look great....looks like there's a tad bit of chrome on the outer part of the black spokes, IDK what that's about. MGP has caliper covers which offers lots of colors & you'll want to use the Lexus logo.....

Looks good! I'd say silver or chrome lugs.
