How easy is the vinyl to remove after a year or so?

You think you can help me get a cutout for my roof? I want it gloss black.

Looking forward to the pics!!!

I guess I meant a sheet of it. I think I need a 40" long sheet. If I remember right, the width was 32".

I found a sheet online that would work for me at $200.

What do you type in to search on ebay? I didn't find any that are wide enough to use a single piece to cover the roof.
