Vinyl Wrap
Do you guys think I should vinyl wrap my roof matte black? My car is metallic black all around without the pano roof. Would it look out of place with a matte black roof or would it look pretty nice? Thanks guys.

If you're going to do any sort of wrap on the roof (with your colour car), it should be CF wrap. Matte Black would just make the car look really naff especially if you don't touch the moonroof.
Waste of good money regardless of the wrap though, IMHO.

....or resembles cop cars used in drug raids.
Seriously, a flat finish lookes like oxidized paint on an old car. Can't help but think that dirt sticks to it moreso than a waxed gloss finish.

I got a quote from N-Motion that it would cost about $300.

Matte black is like the new CF fad now. Unless the whole car is going to be matte I would say don't do it.
If your car is metallic black all around I would not just matte the roof it would look out of place. CF wrap would look alright though. IMHO

you know, do what you wanna do, its your car. i understand asking for opinons to help with the decision making. but at the end of the day its your car, make it happen, just make sure you choose the right shop to do the work. my opinon i think it will contrast well!! make sure they have the right vinyl also, there are different ones, of course, u want one that does have some reflection of light to it.
Im about to make alot of people mad with my next vinyl wrap!!, lol.
