Great idea for the sun roof. Can't wait to see the day time pics. I plan on wrapping my roof near the end of the summer hopefully. Good work so far!

So here it is. Updated pics of the BatmanBenz sunroof. I think it looks even better during the day. It's not perfect, still would like to touch up a lil bit. But I have to admit, I'm really happy with it. Never dreamed it would look this good. Would love to know what you guys think......or if there are some other shots of it you'd like to see.

Thanks man! I really appreciate that. It was either that or a Benz star. I thought the benz star wouldn't let enough light through. So i went with this idea. What can I say I like Batman. I figured it wouldn't hurt to try since if it didn't work. I could still just take the vinyl off the sunroof portion. I'd love for to see the benz star done on someone else's ride though.

Just added a sweet carbon roof spoiler courtesy of "jspecteggy". Makes it all even better. I'll post more pics soon. If anyone's got any other batman themed ideas i'd love to hear em. Still looking for some cool ideas for a new grill and trunk badge/emblems

And I do plan on doing it myself, it's MUCH cheaper, and I will have a lot of time this summer to do it, so I can take a week of not having the car if it takes that.
My vote is on teal LM's with some purple annodized lugs, i think it would look sick against a silver/grey or white.

that batman cutout looks sick dude! i seen you have some wrinkles around the license plate thing (forget wtf its called), it would make your life hella easier if you remove it then conform the vinyl around that little edge and put it back on. its an easy removal.

I really like it and you did a good job man! I'm really wanting to do my own trunk, but i'm contemplating just paying the 200 lol.

How come you didn't do the plastic part on the trunk? This is what I was worried about doing, as it looks like a real PITA!!!

Overall.... Fun and hard at the same time

That is probably the best way to describe this project. "Fun & Hard at the same time. Didnt plan to not wrap the plastic part, just kinda worked out that way. I am going to do the trunk again. It's ok, but not good enough to me. I just finished the hood yesterday. That went perfect. I'll be posting some pics soon. So far I've got the entire top of the car wrapped. Let me know when you start your's. would love to see how it goes for you. Let me know if ur lookin for any things NOT to do. lol, ive done plenty of those.

Havent updated with new pics of my Batman Benz in a while. So thought I should. It's been a little slow going on the full wrap. Got in a little fender bender and really just got burnt out on doing after a bit. Not the easiest thing to do. But I'm almost done now. Only the right rear door and rear quarter panel left. Here are some pics i just had on my laptop right now and remember it's still not finished. you can see the unfinished portion in one. So don't go too hard on it. hahaha. But so far I have to say I'm pretty happy with it. Playing with some wheel color combinations now. We'll see how it goes. Any other cool ideas are welcome.

I had that grill on, black also. Just didn't like it. But I havent seen it on the car since I've wrapped it. I still have it, maybe i'll give it another shot. Havent gotten around to aligning the hood since the little fender bender. Thanks for the reminder
