I forgot to take the before pictures of this car before wrapping the roof, but you guys can probably imagine what it looked like before/stock with the white roof. The owner of this alpine white BMW E60 5 series came by to my shop in Anaheim Hills / Orange County from around Los Angeles to have the roof wrapped in my gloss black vinyl material. Went with the gloss black to give it a clean factory look, similar to what the car would have looked like if it came with a panoramic roof. Also took some close up pictures around the sunroof, edges, rails, etc for you guys to see the details that goes into my installs.

Very very good job. The ass I took my car to, F ed it up so bad. He had NO idea what he was doing. I went ahead and painted it. I love it. One thing I will say though, the shark fin looks out of place, I'm surprised to see he had you leave it unwrapped.

The price varies from installer to installer. Honestly, even just my area, it can range from $100 - $500 for the same job. My price won't correlate with what others are charging.

Looks awesome, +1 my roof got f'ed up too. The installer scratched the back half of the vinyl, and he did a terrible job around the sun roof. I'll probably just have it removed or painted. I have the fin wrapped too which wasn't done the best so I might actually remove it after seeing how this one looks.
