Gents,
im a bit conflicted as to whether or not i should Paint Protection Film the LC or just color change it with inozetc super glossy wrap. Pricing is about the same, but i want to protect my paint from rock chips.

Colors im looking at are
Miami Blue https://www.inozetek.ca/collections/super-gloss-colors/products/miami-blue
Snow Blue https://www.inozetek.ca/collections/super-gloss-colors/products/snow-blue-sg740
Turquoise Dream https://www.inozetek.ca/collections/super-gloss-colors/products/turquoise-dream
Sand https://www.inozetek.ca/collections/super-gloss-colors/products/sand
Piggy Bank https://www.inozetek.ca/collections/super-gloss-colors/products/piggy-bank
Kenmery Blue https://www.inozetek.ca/collections/special-edition-colors/products/kenmery-blue-by-liberty-walk-special-edition
Below is Miami blue on the LC500 which is sort of my forerunner option right now

how often you drive on hwy? wrap doesn't protect a lot from rock chips.
blue looks good on the lexus...don't even think about sand or piggy bank.

The wrap is 1/3 the thickness of ppf I guess. Still some protection right ? I wanted it protected because I was going to take it down to LA along the Oregon coast. Figure the color change is just a bonus.

What prices have you been quoted? I don't think a colour change with no door jambs is the same price as a full body PPF.

i got quoted 5900 for color change and around 5k for full ppf.

no ive never heard of this, thanks for the heads up.
From what ive found online, its a colored PPF thats about 8milmeters thick vs this inozetec wrap at 3.7-4.1milmeters thick.
So double the protection. Any idea who uses this locally?

How exactly is the inozetek midnight purple NOT on your list???? That is utter madness.
Otherwise just get a PPF. You’re not a 22 year old with an frs

A rock chip is gonna tear right through that vinyl.
You could PPF the front bumper and hood, then wrap over it I guess?

midnight purp is too GTR34. Isn't it heresy to put a Nissan color on a Toyota? BibleThump

@Badhobz as of 2023 your fellow Corolla’s won’t be blessed with Blue Streak anymore ;) They’re dropping that colour and replacing it dark blue and inferno orange.
You’ll only be confused with pre-facelift ’rollas Kappa

I’m hoping in 5-7 years that the Mazda soul red will all be dead as well (rust) and when I finally unwrap it, the red on red will look good. Hohohohoho
