As someone who works in the sign industry and has removed and installed vehicle graphics… DO NOT USE ACETONE! It will destroy your paint. There are paint friendly adhesive removers you can purchase at sign shops. You can also ask for tips.
Get a spray can of black paint and cover everything. Balls to the walls with black. You’re already this far, and it would contribute sooooo much to the really cool aesthetic.
Don't ever use acetone on paint again, to get rid of glue. I'm surprised it didn't take the clear coat or paint off. Use Goof Off or Goo Gone, and then clean that off with soap and water. Acetone is only safe to use on glass, bare metal, or chrome. Acetone can even weaken powdercoat, I've learned that the hard way.

Get a spray can of black paint and cover everything.
Balls to the walls with black. You’re already this far, and it would contribute sooooo much to the really cool aesthetic.
Can't wait to see the 'this car rear-ended me in the dark because they didn't see my reflectors' video

Don't ever use acetone on paint again, to get rid of glue. I'm surprised it didn't take the clear coat or paint off. Use Goof Off or Goo Gone, and then clean that off with soap and water. Acetone is only safe to use on glass, bare metal, or chrome. Acetone can even weaken powdercoat, I've learned that the hard way.
Actually, you were supposed to remove that trunk sticker the day you got the car, that’s just there so it doesn’t scratch your paint when shipping

>Removes it
Genius.
“Making my lexus ugly” should’ve been the title

Those reflectors wrapped are horrendous. 😂🤦🏽♂️
As a wrap installer i feel qualified in saying we charge so much because the material is expensive and we have to pay our bills just like everyone else lol
Do rear lights as well. It's gonna be cool, bro. Trust me
I don't agree with people taking stuff off their new cars but this was actually pretty good.
