Roof and Pillar wrap? Yay or Nay?

[Calif boss302]

What does the forum think of the vinyl wrap on the roof and pillar? Bumper is a bit much, but I've been thinking of a roof wrap and now a pillar wrap. Hmmmm

To change the color or for protection?

I have to get some samples, since I am interested in protecting the OEM paint. It's impossible to tell from a picture how close the color is. The other thing that would interest me is a clear satin to wrap the whole car in.

saw that boss on ebay yesterday

my vote is no on the roof wrap unless you can match the reflective stripes

the pillar and bumper wrap a big no

 

[Boss1815]

I say nay on all of it; roof, pillar and bumper.

I had the roof on my GT wrapped with matte black vinyl and I'm really happy with it.

The B pillar wrap totally changes the looks and I like it. As long as your windows are tinted a little.

I did gloss black on my 12 white gt too and agree it looked good

the 13's look different and its going to be hard to match the reflective stripe

The bumper is out for me . . .but the roof look interesting. The pillar might be too much as well.
I saw this car (Michael Heintz's) that got me thinking about the roof. Decisions decisions. I may give it a try. Worst case is just peel it off.

I like the roof wraps on '13s.

Not so sure about the B pillar... They do something like that on the Explorer A pillar. I think I'd like it on the mustang if it didn't have to be curved. That part looks a little weird. If you do it, I'd suggest gloss black for the pillar.

I've got my roof and top of my trunk wrapped with satin black. It's a nice sleek look with an RTR spoiler to top it off

Do you have pictures of this? I have always wondered why they didn't do the trunk more similar to the 70 Boss.

Thanks.

I wrapped the roof on the race car in "carbon fiber" vinyl after I damaged the roof paint during removal of sound deadener. People ask about the "carbon fiber roof" CONSTANTLY when they see it, for better or worse.

Roof and deck lid wrap in black look terrific. Bumper and 'B' pillar...not so much.

Not sure if you guys are affraid of Plastidip or something, but its cheaper to buy and easier to apply and remove if you dont like it. I did my roof and trunk lid with it and liked the roof, but not the trunk. I ended up driving with the roof black for a month, then descided I didnt like it. 30 seconds later, back to stock, the way it is now. I did the a pillars too, and with the curve, it looks funny in real life. Plastidip is your freind, if you like the look, peel it off and get it wrapped.
