Default Roof Vinyl Wrap Thread

Just posting up some pictures of previous customers of mine (some of which are on this forum), that have bought vinyl from me and taken pictures of it installed on their cars.

Feel free to post up any pictures you guys might have too.

Front center section of lip and roof in gloss black:

It's definitely not for everybody, but it's a nice option for those who like this kind of style. Just like any other kind of mods.

Looks nice and clean. Impressive custom work.

What is that raised circle on the roof? Just curious since it stood out.

It looks like a reflection of the light or whatever it is up on the ceiling of the area its parked under. It's that shiny!

That'd be a reflection of the building's ceiling on the car's roof

Yes, all of my vinyl wraps/materials are done in one piece, so no seam lines.

Looks much better than what the guy did with my roof. I can still see squeegy lines a month later. How much for two yards of gloss black and two yards of matte black shipped to 30345? And what is the width of the roll?

Wow! That is shiny. I thought it was maybe from a GPS antennae mount or something, but I can see its a reflection when I go back to it. Very nice work.

Don't try to wrap the top by yourself. It can been done but much easier with 4 hands, or have a crappy seam with a 2 piece.

Oh yea. It's definitely not something you want to try to put on yourself, for the initial lay on. Once it's on, it's ok to do the rest yourself. However, on application, it'll shave the time by 75% and make sure it goes on well with a 2nd person there helping you lay it on.

Actually, almost every other car I do wraps on have sunroofs. It's not too much extra working getting it to work on a car with a sunroof. Antennas are what's hard.
