Title: roof vinyl
Post by: boe3 on January 24, 2010, 08:10:20 pm
i am considering having my white ed30 roof vinyl wrapped in matt black as the lower section of my rear bumper is sprayed this colour and looks really nice and i have seen a few on hear and really like it. although i have never seen it up close was woundering what you opinions would be on this how it looks up close how it comes of if you wanted to go back to white.
also im in kent so would anyone have the details of any one or recomend anybody to do this for me many thanks rob.

Looks great, ive got the standard gti front bumper on mine which im having colour coded soon (im leaving the lip as it is). Ive also had the lower section of my ED30 rear bumper vinyl wrapped black and looks 100 times better too! Im thinking the roof could be next!!

I'm thinking about the roof/mirror on mine as well.. how much was that?

The contrast on the white car looks great. :notworthy:

Matt, car looking tough.  I can't help wondering how your car would look like if the front lip was red.

My car is going in to have the splitter and other parts sprayed to match the body work, After looking at your pictures I am convinced that I am not going to get the bottom part of the lip done too.
Love it!

Only just seen this thread but thinking of getting the roof/front lip wrapped in black too...(Mat car looks cool...)   :congrats:

Creative F X in Bromley (Kent) do it - they've got some good pics of cars that have been done on their website
