In case I missed it, do the parking sensors still work the same with the wrap?

Everytime I see your GSh, it makes me a little envious. I love my 460 but the hybrid has something about it...maybe the 460 needs a hybrid brother soon.

Thanks. Precision Installs actually took them off and wrapped them completely. No issues with the parking sensors, they work fine.

I love the GS 450h... though I love a nice V-8 ala 460

Its been what 2 months and no issues at all. I have a couple of stains but nothing glaringly bad. People love the color and driving around people just stare all the time. The strip continues to be a point of debate

Very happy with it!!!

Definitely one of our favorite, and most fun, videos to date!

Seeing that GS maneuver like that was awesome!

Thanks everyone.....

I'm kind of now in a weird place...trying to figure out to keep the car and if so, what next. I'm loving my wife's red leather in her GS F-sport... but the yellow brakes are throwing me off with that. I've thought change the color to maybe red or purple if the Lakers make the playoffs

I honestly miss the black/gunmetal/yellow look.

Then I'm thinking maybe time to sell it..... really confused...

The bloody stripe has grown on me

Great video, though I kept waiting for the high speed chase scene!

I have to say, in the video the stripe looks surprisingly good. Wonder what I would think in real life.

Keep the car. Put this matte graphite CV5's back on. Maybe a lip. BOOM! And Mike, I don't think your right leg could fit in an IS. You're about what... 6'8"? LOL.

Well the wrap is going to come off soon, matte white is the hardest to keep clean and even garaged and covered when it is exposed things stick. I'm unsure will I wrap it another color and turn it into a VIP build or put the car up for sale. Its been a lovely vehicle, I truly am happy to have experienced my first hybrid and I can now recommend or not recommend based on first hand experiences.

Something should be arriving shortly so I am at this point thinking there are too many Lexi around

If I do sell I am unsure will I sell as is or part it out (the brakes alone are $$$$).

Overall super happy with it and its aged very very well.
