Default Vinyl wrapped the roof and rear defuser

So I vinyl wrapped the roof and rear defuser of my car this weekend, or rather I had it done. I think it came out pretty well. However, I am going to have to get the antenna bit redone as it is peeling a bit. They tried to do the fang area, but said that it just wouldn't work without relief cuts, and he didn't want nasty lines. May have to get that done by a painter.

Roof


Rear valence

Looks sweet, how much was the vinyl wrap for the diffuser?

looks good! I did my roof and rear valence overlays as well and really loved how it turned out. I paid $150 for the whole thing (material and install).

The antenna was wrapped just like the roof (i.e. with the same film). I think the best way to do it is to take the antenna off though so the antenna cover can be wrapped around the edges. I didn't have that done, but the edges are peeling just a bit already so will have to get it fixed.

I am usually not a fan for vinyl wraps on street cars, but this one looks really good....very clean job especially once the antenna portion is fixed.
