Some pictures on a 997 GT3 that I wrapped the 3M Di-Noc CF with, on the roof and spoiler element. Let me tell you, it looked hot! Haha. The car was less than 24 hours old, off of the dealership lot.

So many white cars, but I don't blame them, the black roofs do look best on white colored cars:

Some before and after pictures. This is the first time I've taken pictures before applying the vinyl roof, so it'll give you guys somewhat of an idea of how it looks like.

Here's pictures of an E46 that I did the window trim in matte black, tinted the red portions of the tail lights, and did gloss black on the roof and his roof spoiler:

Not a Mercedes or even a Euro car, but I am curious to if any of you guys would ever consider doing a matte finish on your car. Just interested in hearing/seeing some opinions on this from benz owners, since it seems more of a Subaru thing:

Matte black -

Installed gloss black vinyl on the window trim of this E46 M3 and tinted his tail lights.

I probably should have done a better job of cleaning the window trim before taking the pictures. There's palm/finger prints from me installing all over it, haha.

Do you guys have any specific or general questions about anything? Or if you guys want me to take pictures of the cars that I do at certain angles or specific places/parts, let me know.

More of the white 350z with the vinyl wrapped gloss black roof:

Got some new pictures that I haven't posted up, that I'll do later today or tomorrow.

Let me know if you guys want any specific pictures/angles for me to take, before/after/etc of the vinyl on the cars, and I'll see what I can do for you.

Also, feel free to post any thoughts or feedback you might have. Always looking for new ideas to do and try out

How well do you think 3M Di-noc carbon fiber vinyl would hold up on a chrome edge 3-slat grill with the vinyl only covering the black? Meaning it would butt up against the chrome and not wrap around the face of the slat.

I've never done the interior on that car before. Do you have a picture of the interior and the bumps?

Had someone request me post some pictures of blacked out window trim and misc chrome parts.

I did the window trim on this C63, along with his chrome trunk lid handle and the top half of his side mirror blinkers.

Before:
