Roof Vinyl wrap

[JamesL]

Sounds sweet! Is the roof carbon effect, the textured matt finish or flat shiney look?

It IS sweet! Lol! Its textured matt, so you can feel the weave too.

Why not try the carbon cloth that is available in the UK now. It was originally only in the US but is now over here. It looks like real carbon and is much easier to fit than vinyl.

I done the interior trim and mirrors of my previous car and it looked great.

You would have to ask around regarding stockists and price but if you are stuck a local guy has it in stock ( autoshield-protection.co.uk )
I 'think' his is pre glued. Not sure of the sizes though.

There are some pictures of the cloth here if you type the iem number in, 170621389949

Bit like the Dash on the Mk2 Leons then!?

Looking at the car from a distance, does the textured carbon weave look a charcoal grey / matt black, or?..... Then close-up (next to the car), again, what colour did it look as a 'block' of colour?

Just trying to guage the overall effect from a distance & close up next to the car.

My Leon is Black and I dont want the vinyl wrap (roof) to just blend in with the rest of the car with is shiney Black - would like a bit of a contrast! But at the same time, dont want the Vinyl looking OTT (chavvy)!! ...obviously this applies to anyone with a Black car!

have to say i think a carbon wrap would look the dogs danglies on a black leon....would give it just enough to stand out, but not too much so it doesn't blend in.....
