Wrapped a thing | Gloss Carbon roof
So, after taking delivery I managed to keep my hands off the car for 24 hours. After it was sealed and waxed I decided to wrap the roof in gloss carbon. I felt a little boy racer doing it but I loved the way it turned out.
As many of you know, true gloss carbon wraps are few and far between. Here are some install pics! The antenna cover is a pain. It's fused on with a VERY strong adhesive. Apply generous amounts of heat and go easy with a razor. The Techart gloss carbon is extremely thick. I recommended having a professional install it to avoid ugly corners and edges. |

Can you take a full shot of the car? I noticed they didn't do the rails.

Looks great. Wonder how much a real cf roof would cost if an aftermarket tuner offered it? Is it even possible to change the roof? I know a carbon fiber manufacturer who lives close by and he's amazing at what he does.

Personally if I wanted a black roof I would stick with wrapping plain gloss black.
Couldnt live with people saying cool carbon roof and telling them its only a wrap. But each to their own.

I saw this car last Saturday. It looks very nice. Much better than the matt CF wrap stuff I have seen.
