I'm suprised no one hasn't come out with a precut vinyl wrap for our cars. My buddy who has a g37 says he can by the vinyl wraps precut just to apply to the top.

its hard to get a precut vinyl because we have a sunroof and it may or maynot match up. also the e60 roofs are the hardest to wrap. ive attempted to wrap mine 2 times already and failed both times lol

well i attempted to do gloss black both times and according to don thats the hardest material to work with because it folds over easily. the first time i did it i stretched it too much and you could see through it and the 2nd time the heat gun got too close and it burned a hole -_-
