Anyone interested in a roof Overlay? Good alternative to painting your roof black. Just finished one for the G35 Coupe! I'm seeking a test car in the San Diego area that would be interested. Email me .

I second that,,, any idea of cost? I was thinking about paint but this is less hassle if i want to return back to white.

 

what is the stuff made of? UV rays kills the clear coat on the roof, i wonder will this stuff hold up in the rain and on sunny days. And like most sticky adhesive on paint, the clear would be messed up later if you tried taking the overlay off.

 

ANDY Hit me up ill do it

 

I will do it if pancho falls through Andy

 

lol, I knew some of you guys would be interested . I've already gotten about 10 peopole since this am that want it. As far as price goes, not sure yet. The G35 version is only $70 shipped!

Me Want!!! Me Want!!!

 

what do you mean?

 

i might be interested too

 

$70 shipped I'm in if I can convince my neighbor to put it on for free. Is there any risk of fcking up the paint underneath?

 

Overlays usually have adhesive behind it. If you put the overlay over paint, over time, the heat from the sun will bake on teh clear coat. This is why paint shops don't recommend putting stickers on painted surfaces only on glass. It will leave an imprint on your clear coat.


Paint can take more abuse than any type of overlay. I was wondering if this product is prone to water, UV rays, peeling, and what not. Since this peice is black, i was asking how does water and sun is going to affect it. Water spots are going to show up and also any type of flaws. Black paint with clear, however, can be polished back out to new. last thing i want is a overlay that is chipped and full of flaws that i can't do anything about.

 

All you guys want to put a giant sticker on the roof of your cars, and you're the ones making fun of the honda guys. how sad

 

Love that blue NSX

 

The Vinyl I use is rated a 7 year lifespan, not saying it will last 7 years, but I do get emails from customers who've sported my stuff for 5 years now, telling me how well the vinyl has held up!

I'm going to Overlay my NSX so it will look like this:

lol, those pictures look familiar Andy

Let me know if you need a test subject for any other cars. I'll make a drive down to SD for this one!

 

Do any of your customers ever tell you the problems they do get though? Just curious. I know most of the stuff you sell aren't as big as this piece.

 

You will have a customer in me once the overlay is available.

 

yes they do. You're right, this is the biggest piece I've made to date. The fact that I'm going through with putting the stuff on my roof and pillars says alot. If I thought it might do harm after removing it, I probably wouldnt go through with it. The key really, is to make sure you get ALL of the moisture out when applying the overlay. Trapped moisture might not be good in tye long run.

Keep us updated Andy.
