Black Vinyl roof overlay?
Anyone know of a shop or person who does good Black vinyl roof overlays in San Diego, CA? I haven't been able to find anyone besides in LA.

Thanks,

Brandon

You might have better luck in the regional section.

Modern Image should be able to help you out. They were going to do a full flat black wrap my S2000 for about $2000 so a roof can't be that much...

Off topic, I think I saw you at the car wash the other day. I had the brand new RR EVO X. I just bought it the day before.

I wasn't sure who's car it was and they denied me on the wash so I just bailed...
But back to the vinyl, call up Modern Image. They do good work and are pretty cheap.

There's a vendor on Acurazine website called BlueBatmobile. They specialize in roof overlays and headlamp/taillight overlays. Not sure if he's in So Cal, but I'm sure he can make something for you. Lotta good reviews for him.

uhm... I think all the RR X's on these boards have been like almost CF Free... so the blank and red theme on the exterior isn't so popular. You could be the first though.

I would be 50/50 on it.

Please post pics of the overlay when you get it done! I'd like to see how it looks, esp on WW. I was thinking of having this done as well.
