Here's something a bit different. Matte black roof on a face lifted E90. Turned out fairly well. Not all cars can pull off a matte black roof/look, but this one did it very well.

A quick picture an E46 M3 with cf roof and gloss black roof rails:

What kind of vinyl are you using that is able to withstand so much heat? what brand and model of that brand?
Do you use an overlaminate on the vinyl to insure that the color doesn't fade? Do you cut on the car for tucking?(if the car doesn't have roof rails), are you doing a wet application or a dry application? Also, last but not least, how long does a usual roof take you? |
Don, just wanted to compliment you again - I check in on this thread from time to time and I must say, you do quite the work :thumbsup:
Maybe one of these days you'll franchise out to Northeast. I know someone ( :wink: :wink: ) who is planning to open up a customizing shop in NYC and I bet he'd get a bunch of people wanting these roofs and so forth, because this is not easy to come by around here. |
Thanks :)
For now, I'll stick to being able to offer installation to local members, and my material to non-local members who need it. I've shipped them worldwide by this point. -Don |
I want my roof done..but could you answer those questions?
|
Which questions?
