Hi, I just got a $350 quote to wrap my RL roof with gloss black! Does anyone know a cheaper place? I'm in San jose on Capitol/Alum Rock area. Thx.

 

you ever thought about using 3m di-noc instead? there's an acurazine member here that can sell you the dinoc and probably install it too and he's not far from you.

PM meesheddie

 

I have cf roof wrap by canlas window tinting for $250

 

I want the gloss black look, so I don't know if 3m has them or not. Plus the vinyl that I'm plan to install is specific fOr the roof. I'll try to pm him, thx guys.
Lol the pic is way too dark I can't tell

 

Hey, Kirby where are you located in San Jose? Can I have a quick glance at your CF roof?

 

i got install the vinyl for you cheaper. I live in san jose too. You can check out my car or the pics of other acuras i've done.

 

Super cool!

Yea, man. I'm too busy with school and work. TL looks hot.

 

hey meesheddie great looking car!!! motivated me to go w/ CF roof....

 

Sorry I know this thread is over a year old but I would like to know if anyone knows a place in San Jose that can do vinyl roof top. Thanks a advance.

 

Just to re-quote my teammate Vimal (post #2)...

"you ever thought about using 3m di-noc instead? there's an acurazine member here that can sell you the dinoc and probably install it too and he's not far from you. PM meesheddie"

btw, meesheddie is also my teammate...LOL

 

Thanks for the feedback.

 

it cost like 100 bucks in vinyl, you can easily do it. my little brother did it on a friends car with zero experience and it came out exactly like if it came out of a shop.. use 3m

 

i did my roof in cf and it came out really good!! it took me about 3hrs!!

 

a place in Santa Rosa called A shade darker who can wrap your roof for $100 and thats labor and material included. that was the quote i received a few months ago, if any of you were close to Sonoma County

 

what material do they use?

 

i believe they use 3M eddie. you could confirm with them tomorrow, they should be open!
here's their contact info and address just in case :
3093 Wiljan Court Santa Rosa, CA 95407
(707) 546-2827

 

I offer roof overlays in superglossy finish, satin matte, and 3m1080 cf . Email me if interested.

B@t™

 

Wow, I didn't expect this thread is still alive lol. Anyway I got my roof wrapped in gloss black It's super glossy, but the down side is that is attracted a lots of dirt! You have to clean them every week!

 

Im planing on putting vinyl on my roof as well. I found a shop in SJ that was charging 350 w. 1 year warranty. Is that a standard warranty for vinyl wrap? Price isn't bad I just feel like after a year if they vinyl starts fading/peeling Id be screwed.

 

my buddy does it at his shop for about $150. PM me for details and I'll get you a contact number

 

350 sound about rite because the vinyl alone is around 120-150$ depending on the size and other 150$ for the install. If they are using a good brand like 3M or orcal, then don't get the warranty, it is a completely waste of money. The vinyl should last about 3-5 yrs outdoor. I had my vinyl more then 1 yr and it still holding fine and no fading just a lots of dusts. So be prepare to clean them every week. PM^ the guy above for more info, if that include the vinyl plus the labor lol.

 

I can vouch for Eddie's work.

 

haha thanks

 

Hello All!

I didn't want to start a new thread for something a tad relevant. Is there any recommendations on who to go to for getting my window trims vinyl wrapped?

Is "meesheddie" still around? If so (and if he does vinyl wrap for smaller things like window trims) does anybody have his contact info?

For what it is worth I have a 4G TL (2010) - tired of all the chrome on the car lol.

Many thanks in advance!
