So, I decided to wrap my roof in reck wrap 4D carbon fiber, because it most closely matched my Sebion Carbon Fiber Hatch & Hood. This post is about an issue I was having with bubbling where the pillar bar and roof meet, for lack of a technical term I'm going to call it a "drainage canal" (I get why it is there, but I really don't like how it looks, sloppy Nissan )
If anyone has wrapped their roof, you will find that if your cars left out in the blaring sun some wraps have the horrible potential to start bubbling up and peeling off in any areas of extreme changes of direction, lame. Last week I was at a show and I noticed my roof wrap was beginning to bubble up in the drainage canal in-between the pillar bar trim and where the roof goes up. (see photos) I solved this issue by buying a black rubber door expander spline from Fleet Farm and some DAP contact stick and placing this as a rubber stopper of sorts that holds the roof wrap in place around that extreme change of direction down into this canal of sorts... Hope this helps someone fix a problem!
