Oakley corporate jet?

On the way to the track yesterday I had to stop off at my bank, which sits at the end of Boeing Field in Seattle. While I was there I saw a plane come in that had a paint scheme and with an "O" that looked like what one might see on one of those Oakley cars. I assume it might have been the Oakley corporate jet?

In any case, it caught my eye because it looked really nice and certainly stood out.

I'm pretty sure it is paint, dont think a wrap can handle the pressure of flight at high altitude and speed.
