Best way is to either paint or use vinyl. However, it's very difficult to vinyl wrap the shark fin so you will need to buy a black shark fin if you go with vinyl, or have the white sharkfin painted. Or just paint the entire roof.
And really, someone who knows what they are doing with vinyl should be able to get that fin wrapped pretty easily with a help of a heat gun or a blowdrier

Dude, that's retarded! To paint the fin is literally couple of hours, counting the drying time!

Buy new fin = Bad :thumbsdown:
Paint/wrap old fin = Good
Got it.
