Default Solar Orange roof wrapped in matte black

Well this past Saturday I had a buddy wrap my roof in matte black. Came out looking great. Weather was crappy so this was the only pic I snapped for now. I'll get some better ones once I get it all cleaned up.

Thanks! Yea, I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. We were debating if we wanted to do matte or gloss and we both agreed matte was the way to go

durability is very very high.

its a breeze to clean, its very plasticy.. its slippery as hell under a duster.
Lends itself to spray detailer very well.. its not rough like primer... Its like plastic... and under it all, im still 100% Silverstone sheetmetal, fully protected.

The only negative is as the rest of the paint fades over the years, the paint under the vinyl will stay fresh so it'll look "off" if you ever decide to pull it off.

Looks good though.

Yea, this is definitely a concern. However, I do have a garage and a car cover for when it's not in there. I mean it will obviously still fade when I'm out driving it and everything too, but it won't as fast hopefully haha. Who knows how long I'll have it on there too so we shall see.
