True but people would get the idea and it doesn't have to be prefect

That five looks good. I would of gone with a matte black though I was quoted 500 something to have it professionally done. The wrap is only about 130 so Im thinking of doing it myself one of these days lol

I had the flat black on my X5. That was just a pic I found from google image search.


As for doing it yourself, it really is a PIA. Childhood friend and his dad have a shop doing large vinyl wraps (contracts with the bus companies, RV rental places, any business owned PT cruisers, mini coopers, or VW bugs it seems... you get the idea). Doing that, they have to maintain the shape of the vinyl or plan for the deformation of the vinyl as it wraps around the shapes when they print the advertisement / lettering... He said it is more a large number of trail and error / learn by doing methods they have developed to get it right... A flat roof (these roofs are not flat, btw!), not caring about deformation, what the hell, try it yourself! I wouldnt be surprised if you end up ripping it off halfway through! (challenge granted!)

Here's a pic of one to give you an idea of how it would look. I think it looks great.
