$250-$300 is what I've been hearing and seeing here in Orlando with $250 being the closes target range here in Orlando. One thing that I want to point out about having it painted is that you can polish it

A nice polised black surface is nice in the day, and at night with street lighting it will look great, no matter waht time of day ;0



See the shine??? I don't know if vinyl can do that... Anyone know?

See... That looks really good... The entire car matches also, so it fits very nicely together... Nice

^The cool temperature of your picture makes your EVO roof the same blue color as the rest of the car. But I get it. I'm really looking into this ... still debating on either vinyl or professional paint job...
