White Z - Glossy Black Vinyl Roof
 

Just put on a glossy black vinyl wrap last night, only took about 2 hours. They wanted 180 and to leave my car over night to do it around where I live, I paid $100 for the vinyl (have a bunch extra left over) and the tool kit with free shipping. Ill put more pics up tommorrow all I have is the one from my phone for now sorry.

Cool! How hard was it to do and where did you get the kit?

Was a lot easier than I thought. Def do it with 3 people though, I did it with one other person and at some points I really could have used a third. If your doing it on a 350 it will most likely be much easier, the roof contours on the 370 screwed me a few times. And when using the heat gun be real quick and before you use the tool to smooth out the bubbles let it cool, I have a few little marks (like 1/4" lines) where it looks like it was melted when I tried to push bubbles out. I got the kit from stickercity. Shipping to NJ took about a week

Thank you, it was embedded but when it got moved from General Discussion, I don't know what happened

not so long ago black (cf) hood was cool... then now you young ones are thinking black roofs are cool. then a few years later from now black trunks will be cool....followed by the rear bumper, then..

Well no matter how you feel about this particular mod or how you choose to express your feelings on the subject, keep in mind he used a vinyl wrap, which is removable and actually protects the paint at the same time.

In for finished (better) pics :tup:

I'm looking forward to some better pictures. :tup:

These pictures will decide whether I go with a gloss black or a flat black on my roof. Thanks! Haha.

i wanna do this real bad but i dunno if i can do it haha is it hard??

any close up pix?

looks good! my friend had a white 350 with a black painted roof and looked really good.

Better Pics!
 

Wish I had practice on another car first, but I don't think it came out that bad for my first time.

Hardest part was cutting the sides, without scratching the paint or cutting the rubber, this is where I screwed up a little, but only if you look really close will you be able to tell.

Cutting the front and back was pretty easy, just cut along the glass.
