agreed

Thoughts?

Just a quick shop job and viola.

It's your car. If you like it and can afford it then who cares what others think.

I think it looks sick on a lighter color car. Definitely don't dislike it on darker cars. In fact, mine came with a black top from the factory.

well if you diy with the roof you can do it relatively cheaply with a heatgun and time. But if you don't do it well it will look like crap. Otherwise having a professional do it is not worth it.

Nice work! That really makes it clear!

I actually like the look, but I think not enough to bother with it. Now carbon fiber, I'd be all over that you know. The wrap is so much lighter than black wrap!

lol

I wouldn't either. I just thought the horrible shop was humorous.

FNCrazy · 07-29-2016, 06:12 PM

I should have had you help me try out different colors of wheels, see if ANY color would look good on my color. Before I decided screw it, I can't find anything I like, might as well just stick with the oem's

I like it. Here's a pic of mine if you're still on the fence. I like how it sort of connects the windshield and rear window. With the shade in you don't see it as well, but I've got 35% tint all around and 70% on the windshield so it looks pretty dark from the outside.

Here's a better picture that shows what I meant about connecting the windows.
