AWESOME or AWFUL: Is A Chrome-Wrapped Lexus LFA As Douchey As It Gets Or Completely Brilliant?

Now the whole wrapping trend has been big for quite some time; however, the chrome wrap/paintjob is a newfound endeavor.

I remember it starting with 50 Cent who actually PAINTED his Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster chrome. He, unlike others, didn't "cheap out."

In the past 12 months though, we've seen approximately a handful of chrome-wrapped autos, from Justin Bieber's Fisker Karma to this Lexus LFA.

Question is: Is a chrome-wrapped LFA AWESOME or AWFUL?

What say you?


MOTOREX SNEAK PEEK 8! If the list of wild street machines, hot rods, tuners and customs at MotorEx isn’t enough to excite you, how about a $779,000 Lexus LFA wrapped in Chrome. This is not only 1 of 5 LFA’s in the country, but is officially the first chrome example in the world and its been perfectly executed by the masters over at Exotic Graphix in Melbourne.

Yes! Absolutely Yes! Though not for the faint of heart, especially knowing that Lexus has met their target goal of making the LFA a totally
exclusive one of a kind Supercar. Think again if you dont believe the rich & famous and a collector would'nt love to get their hands on one of these LFA's. This will no doubt become an iconic exotic in the future. Haters dont even waste your time complaining about the cost, it's irrelevant.

I cannot believe that you are attempting to justify such garishness. Lexus fans are amazing. The thing looks horrible. If this were any other brand...

Any car in chrome looks horrendous. Lexus is no exception.

The chrome does make it look more like an appliance. Wonder if it has Granite trim pieces in the interior?

Not as bad as I expected.
