Satin Black Wrapped Lexus IS F

[Defyant]

Spotted this yesterday thought i'd share.

@ first i thought what sorta loon would satin black a ISF!!! then after a closer look i noticed it was a wrap! pretty impressive effect, somthing i'd consider for sure if the price is right!

Far out. I love the colour, but damn that would have been some effort to do as wrap.

So you can actually tell it was a wrap?

Looks like carbon fibre from a quick glance, imo,

Lols, hope the owner didn't catch you taking photos, :P I got told off one time when I saw a subaru with a nice custom purple paint job, <_<

Was this car in Sydney by any chance? When we were there in November i seen one just like this in the circular quey area. Was just working along the street and seen it rumbles past and i said to Cara quick look at that ISF "the what? The black car just there! " oh yeah what about it? lol blonde look at the colour of the black paintwork!

Surely you'd respray before you'd wrap a whole car? I'd have thought wrapping would be a considerably more expensive exercise.

Either way, dislike. Satin/Matte finishes look... well... unfinished IMO. Much prefer a nice clearcoat buffed to look like glass.

don't know about you but i just wanted to get the chalk out lol.

Not at first glance! only and only upon real close inspection and then it was only cause i looked inside the door gaps.... other wise you could never tell, flawless job.

Ya recon? you got a 100k+ to throw down on a car surley a 2-3k MAX imo is the way to go? rather then spend 3k on permanent painting?

He drives the car he likes to see, then peels it off in the end to show a nice shiney paint job and gets max price back. surley thats win win.

don't know about you but i just wanted to get the chalk out lol.

LOL Yer there was a nice white bird ***** on it :P but you could see that it would wash right off.

Yeah right surrey hills hay lol. we was just walking along opposite the cruise ship/ocean liner terminal and i heard this real meaty burble coming from behind and i turned around and spotted this big bad menacing Lexus looked awesome. Actually pretty sure i think i messaged you Foss about it?

I think Carbon Demon on here did the Jag, I've seen that Lexus and looks brilliant..

Wonder what a satin Hello Kitty wrap would look like.. :lol:

Me too! I just re-do my login and that seems to work. You may have to wait a few seconds and re-load the page from the start

I use Mozilla for the best results but it logs you back out if you use the 'go back' button

Can't see the pics but I'm guessing it's 3M's new wraps, can prolly check it out more on their website :)

That'd be an ar.se of a job to take off, too. I remember when my old man decided to change that chunky decal everyone was putting up the sides of their dualcab 4x4 Hiluxes in the mid 90s. That took ages to do! You'd have to really love your car in satin black to be bothered going to that much effort.

Actually pretty sure i think i messaged you Foss about it?

Rings a bell.
