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.

Thanks I may have to order this also.

Just had my roof wrapped in gloss black. I'm really happy with how it turned out.



I have more pics in an album I posted too.

I agree def go with the gloss blk if you have your windows tinted darker than 20%.

That looks great man! I have 35% tint on my Z right now so I'd probably have to get them re-done darker once I get my roof wrapped.

If i was to order the overlay from you Bluebatmobile, would i still need to get the squeege? (I know i probably should get a professional to do it, but i would rather wrap it my self)
