It looks nice wrapped but I wouldn't have gotten that many pieces blacked out. I would have opted for just the main center bar and not the bottom portions.

Does anyone know if the 2016 Lexus LS center wrap is Glossy or Matte finish?

It's Matt finish on the LS , if I had a white car i would definitely wrap in fact I love the way limited edition crafted line looks like with black handles and side view mirrors.

You posted two of the nicest colors on the GS and you don't really need to wrap them but in white color the black wrap kinda goes with it.

Have you thought about using some kind of screw hole plug? I did this on one of my cars before.

Hmmm I think it looks cleaner unwrapped. Maybe wrap the fog light area at the side like how I did last time
