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:

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.

thanks.

Here's some more pictures. Let me know if you guys want me to stop, or I can post up pictures of all of the cars I've done, so you guys have some eye candy to look at

Here are some pictures on a E-class where I blacked out his window trim + rear trunk chrome piece.

I am also starting to do clear bras, for those who are interested.

I can do a simple stage 1 package, which is just hoods and fenders, up to almost anything. Custom bumpers, etc, will not be a problem. All of my wraps are custom cut, and are not pre-cut, so they are formed exactly to your car's needs.

Let me know if any of you guys would be interested in that.

If you're a non-local (or someone who just wants/needs some material) and would like to give a DIY a shot, I can sell you just the material as well.

Let me know if there's any specific car color, roof finish, etc, pictures that you guys may be interested in seeing. I can't make the exact car make, but I can see if I have cars with the color combos close to it.

Some more misc pictures for you guys:

You mean your whole hard top in CF? That'd be kinda hard. Shoot me a PM with what your ideas are/is.

Here's a gloss black roof that I did on a CLS500:

This is how it's done properly. None of that precut nonsense

Come by and get your tails tinted in under an hour from start to finish, versus having to leave your car for a day or more at a shop to get it painted, haha.

I gotta say...your workmanship is awesome. The edges are clean and I don't see bubbles. How much to tint the tails on my CLS500 if I bring the car to you?

How about a full s2k wrapped in the 3M CF material?

Tested the curves etc a bit with some matte black first. Just did the one driver side fender and hood:















Once I got a feel for it, I went ahead and did the full CF treatment on the car. Probably one of the first cars on the east coast to have this fully done (this car was done a long time ago, but the owner's been constantly building it, so it hasn't even seen the roads yet after being fully wrapped):





















So what do you guys think? Who will you be bringing your cars to get wrapped now

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.
