Fabulous! I love it. This is done right. The only minor detail that I'm not a fan of is the polished edge on the barrels of the rims.

it's supposed to come from lexus itself (corporate / hq) versus dealership provided. i definitely asked. lol. i was also hoping for a nice gtd inspired indoor custom car cover that accounts for the wing. no dice.

Pictures would be nice when you get it.

It is called arctic blue so I guess, it has some shade of blue in the paint? How prominent is the blue (in the sense it can be seen under certain light conditions).

i'll def post pictures and im happy to answer any questions. this forum has been so helpful to me building my 17. no real build plans for this one atm. thinking see if my ppe exhaust will transfer over, titan7's for better offset, tint and ceramicpro/xpel ppf. i love the stock exhaust but it's not loud enough or valved and im not going to start gutting or modifying it.

@05RollaXRS nothing really for blue. here's a closeup shot of the arctic blast color. im not seeing any blue flakes or blue in it. and except for the titanium exhaust tips, the only blue im seeing at a glance (since im working atm) is just like everyones. the trim around the F badge, under hood etc. all of the blue in the interior i think is gone. like the blue stitching. i'll look closer tonight and get back but not seeing any out of the ordinary blue.

Sorry, I misread thinking it was 'arctic blue; but yeah that makes sense. Despite having titanium mufflers/axleback, I agree the TE/FSW edition exhaust does not do it justice. You might have to put your PPE exhaust. I think it will work just like it did on your 2017. Cheers!

Love the paint and red interior! As far as I am concerned it is hard to beat white with red interior. Congrats.
