Don Nguyen | **Vinyl Roof Wrapping Services + Stickers/Graphics and more!**

For locals that are looking to get vinyl installed on their cars, I can supply both the materials and do the complete installation at my location. The best way to schedule an appointment with me or reach me is via e-mail at donathon@gmail.com

Here's a link to my Facebook Page - Gallery

I am located in Anaheim Hills / Orange County, California. (Note: I do occasionally make trips to Norcal / Bay Area for vinyl installations/work as well, contact me for more info)

For non-locals (or for someone who just wants or needs some materials) and would like to DIY it, I can supply and sell you just the materials to do the installation as well.

Prices varies for both installation and materials depending on the exact car, vinyl finish, and specific part(s) that you want wrapped, so PM or e-mail me (donathon@gmail.com) directly for price quotes.

- Gloss and matte black roof vinyl (other finishes/colors are available upon request)
- Gloss and matte Carbon fiber vinyl
- Black out chrome/brushed aluminum window trim vinyl
- Interior/exterior trim
- Head/tail light tinting
- Full car wraps
- Graphic/vinyl installations
- And More...

I've done installations on hundreds of cars and have supplied materials to thousands of cars worldwide at this point. Here are just one or two quick pictures of the cars and the work that I have personally done for them, just to give you guys an idea of how it looks like and the quality of my work:

Gloss black vinyl roof install:

Matte black roof install:




Carbon fiber roof install:
Before (hood and roof both originally painted gloss black):


After:


Tinted / smoked lights install:

Blacked out chrome/brushed aluminum window trim install:

After:



For a more concise way of viewing specific examples of my work, I have split the more popular types of installations into specific galleries, which you can view in the links below. Even if you may not see something pictured in one of the links below, feel free to contact me directly, as it is very likely that it is still something that I can do or have done in the past.

Facebook Page - Gallery

Let me know if you guys have any questions or if you are interested in getting some work done.

thanks.

Haha, thanks. Didn't realize you had a Merc too.

I just posted (at least tried to) pictures of your car. BTW, my buddy wants your ACS wheels. I need to get them from you sometime.

CF (probably can't even tell, because of how dark it is, but at least you can kind of see what a black roof looks like on a yellow car, haha):





Gloss:

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:

Gloss black -

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.

Gloss black:

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:

Believe it or not, I am a sponsor on this forum/board.

I guess they just never set me up under their directory.

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

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

Been having quite a few people ask me about interior wrappings, so here's some pictures so you guys can all see, versus me PMing people the same pictures over and over again.

Here's pictures of an E92 335's interior that I wrapped in the 3M carbon fiber di-noc vinyl material:
