I was thinking about doing this. Now I know it will look cool. Great Job. BTW did you just do the fronts? Can you do a full side view shot of your car?

Thanks!

You can get decals from ebay or sites that make them. I personally went to:
http://www.motogfx.com/lexus
They have a handful of colors to choose from, I bought a couple of white and metallic gold decals to go with my blue setup.

Not sure if it will match. Pretty darn close. This might be a shade or two darker.

And as for the kit, I'm gonna go INGS, I know, I know. REAL original, but I really like the look of it.

I like them a LOT. I've been thinking about going black with white decals for a while now but I just can't bring myself to do it... I don't trust myself enough. But this gives me hope!
