DO it Man!

Hopefully Guys this will all be done sometime next week, One of the Fsport stickers got FUZZed up when the shop was applying it so we had to wait for http://www.motogfx.com/lexus to shipment to arrive, we have yet to receive hopefully tomorrow or monday ...(becoming very impatient) ARGHH

Did you paint the calipers yourself? Or went to a shop?

I'm wrapping my calipers in Blue and have Black/machined wheels.




Wheels go on this weekend, wrap whenever I can get to it. Stay tuned for pics.
