So where do I get Lexus sticker from to stick on all 4 front and back? And how do these sticker hold up with the heat and elements long term? Any and all help on the topic would be appreciated.

You can find the decals on ebay, multiple sellers. Just make sure the final coat of paint is completely dry before trying to place them, I rushed the first time and when pealing back the paper and the decal started to left the paint in areas so I just touched up with a brush but 3 years later the same spot started lifting and became a huge eye sore. As for longevity my original set lasted 3 years until I decided to change to black decals which required sanding off the old ones and repainting calipers. As for the decals on the rear calipers, all the ones that come are too large so I added the DIY acura covers.

Yes as usual I agree. I like these, and even want to put a little slight Texture on this Flat Black. There is actually one car manufacture that I have seen their stock caliper in a Black Flat Textured finish with the name on it. But I cannot remember what car it is? Found these pics in a thread, borrowed to post.

If you look thru all the brake caliper color threads no one ever really posts pic of the rears because even when painted they dont stand out and all the decals made even the smallest are to large to place anywhere on the caliper. By placing the Acura caliper covers it allows are large surface area for the decals plus makes the caliper stand out more.

Ahhh ok got it, So which Acura cover do I look to order? Are all Acura covers the same? Any link to start?
I'm all over this to do now. Thanks!
