Looks great! I'm planning on getting my roof wrapped as well. How much was it for the roof with the antenna?

Thanks! Roof and antenna was $180.

Where do you get this type of mod done at? Paint/Body Shop?

kenchan 04-09-2012 11:42 AM

I went to a shop that does tint and vinyl wrap. Not sure I would want a tint shop that had never done wrap before experimenting on my car.

Eh, I tend to believe you get what you pay for, but I didn't bother trying to price shop too much. The guy did my tint too, is nice, and is convenient to where I live. I will pay a bit more to go back to someone who has done right by me before.

i install these things myself so that's why it was a big surprise to me. if you're happy there is no issue here and you dont need to explain why either.

I considered trying this myself, but I think I'd feel better with a shop warranty in case it starts to bubble/peel.

depends on your technique and material used, but it shouldn't bubble or peel at all if done right. :)

Roof looks good.

Rear diffuser looks good, too. Sorry, didnt want you to think I meant ONLY the roof looks good.

yea, I just quoted myself.

Well material used would be good (most likely 3M), but considering I've never done this before I don't know how my technique would be.

Looks really good.

How do I go about getting this done (who do I look up to take care of this for me)? I'd love to get my roof, front valence, rear diffuser and tail lights (I'm in Lancaster, CA if anyone knows anyone).

Also, how do you care for it when it comes to washing, road debris, etc?

Thanks!
