What about dealing with the stock satellite radio antenna... how does that work? Will the overlay kill the reception? How do you mold it to the antenna or do you remove it?

It hasn't affected mine at all. There are at least 3 or 4 of us in our area with wrapped roofs and no one has mentioned anything. The only reason some places don't cover the antenna is mainly because it's a little difficult. You just have to go to a good place. Also if your doing the wrap your self an alternative would be wrapping the roof and cutting out the area for the antenna (which is what a vinyl shop would do any ways, and the antenna would be a separate piece of vinyl) and plasti dipping just the antenna. The shop that Somatic used didn't do the antenna for that reason (difficulty, I believe) and he plasti dipped it and it looks perfect.

^Good info, I will have to make sure my installer can vinyl the antenna. I guess bat is not interested in any sales. He has not responded to any of Q's. And he should check out the other thread opened up.

I also went thru the album and would like to have a sample mailed to me. Glossy black.

I would be looking to vinyl two roofs.

Yes, That is called an eyebrow, or eyebrow tint. It was only $30 and I got 5%. There should be a mark on your front windshield noting the ASA line. It's usually a small sticker, and as long as they don't go below that with the tint you can't get a ticket for it (at least in texas).
