I ordered my roof vinyl this past sunday and got it in the mail yesterday so i decided to throw it on. it wasnt to difficult but i need to get the windows done a little darker so it flows more. i have 35% on every window. there are a few bubbles in the pictures but the sun has made most of them shrink out and the small ones will probably fade within the next few days.

Looks good. Glad everything worked out for you. Remember to wait 1-2 weeks for the bubbles to work themselves out before trying to pop any.

Np, glad you're happy with everything.

This is for the guys who have asked what would look good on their car if they have a carbon fiber hood. Hopefully these pictures can help those of you out a bit. Here's a blue Nissan 350z's roof that I vinyl wrapped with my gloss black material. I wish I had more/better pictures, but it was a bit dark and some of the pictures didn't turn out too good. The owner of this car was somewhere around the Los Angeles or Pasadena area and come down to me in Orange County to have his roof wrapped. You can see the gloss black roof accents the black hood fairly nicely, since they're both glossy finishes/surfaces. This is another good example of how a black roof looks like on a darker colored car such as this blue.

Just want to share my wrap for the pillar trim and mirror of my 350Z. I got my 3D Carbon Fiber vinyl and LED from them, similar quality as the 3M Di-Noc, but in affordable price. It is water resistant and UV stable.

I submiited my pictures to them. ^^

The owner of this car came out to me in Orange County from around Los Angeles somewhere to get the roof of his silver 350z wrapped in my gloss black vinyl material.

If I order it from you, do you think I can apply it myself? Keep in mind that I have no experience of doing something like this at all. All I've done is put zagg screen protectors on my phone, laptop etc. Nothing on that scale and all. I've been wanting to do this for a long time just not sure if I'll be able to do it.

Yes. I include some DIYs with the material that I sell. The 350z is one of the easiest cars to do this on. If you can't do it on a 350z, then you should probably never touch/work with vinyl again, haha.

I had some requests for some more eye level angles, so I mixed those in with some of the higher angle ones to help you guys better visualize what it looks like. I usually get a lot of white and black cars coming by to get vinyl work done, so it's always different when other colored cars come by to get some vinyl work done. I think this is probably the second or third yellow car that I have had come by. The owner of this car was from around Cerritos and came out to me in Anaheim Hills to get the vinyl work done. We went with the gloss black to match the lips/finish on the wheels.

Installing this roof vinyl on the 21st. Having my tint guy do it since I know he'll be able to do it in no time and it will be perfect.

Yes, I ordered this vinyl probably two years ago and am just now getting around to putting it on. I'll post pics when it's on.

Hey so what is the exact material used on this car? Is it the 3M 1080 just regular gloss black? I'm doing mine soon here in CO and this looks the best in my opinion. Which finish would it be? -

Thanks!

What do you mean by what materials can you get? You can select any finish that I use for you to buy.

Default Getting a vinyl roof on my 06?

The guy I bought my 06 off had a poor clear done on roof. Not major at the moment, but I want to get a black vinyl roof on it. Thoughts? Look pretty decent.

Will have black wheels as well when done.

Been done literally thousands of times

If you would have searched for "roof vinyl" you would have found this thread as well as a ton of others:

I love my vinyls - it really ties in the front and rear glass if they are tinted:

If I was gonna do a roof,it'd be a CF overlay not vinyl.The Asuka "double hump" roof looks sick to me.
You'd prolly be the only one in your area with one.
Hey,its only money!
