Mind if I ask how much they charged to do that? Local vinyl shop here in CA charging me $150 for that mid bumper part but also includes bondo work for the license plate holes. Wondering if that's a reasonable price.
Maybe its me but I think that's crazy why get bondo don't you all require license plates in the front. This was free as he has to do it over but he quoted me $70 with the lower part of the bumper being vinyled as well. I'm a return customer and have gotten a lot of work done and recommended a couple of friends to him. I would say $100 is a fair price.

What, to do what! thats what I paid for my roof to be wrapped. They are insane they are only covering the middle of the bumper.
I think a dark graphite metallic like the F Sport wheel color would also look great w/ liquid plat or most any color.
Yeah when he does it I will see if he can paste one on and see what it looks like. I'll post pics of what it will look like, personally I like the black to contrast the middle looks like the LS.
No he only vinyl's but I know someone that does paint calipers. If you want them let me know, I have gotten my 450h done two times cause of color change and it looked great.
So the dark metallic graphite is a no go. I found the color that matches the grill perfectly but the manufacturer is based in France and getting the stock is tough and there's no warranty on it so I settled on satin black from 3m. Too bad, the graphite really looked good.I'm going in sometime next week and getting it done.
I hear it is unwise to paint over them, but then again the 3m wrap the shop that I'm using can be placed over the sensors without any interference. I guess I'll find out for sure when I get it wrapped lol.
Not painting, wrapping and I have seen a couple of people with vinyl and the sensors wrapped, I think blueprint has his sensors covered in vinyl when he did his whole car over. Hopefully he may chime in.

I would purchase two black sensors from lexus.
I can paint that front piece if you are interested. I do paint work on the side.
Mine is wrapped as well and the sensors work perfectly! I asked for the same design as the OP but they did it this way. It's growing on me so might keep it like this.
