Because that would look cheap as hell.

The real question should be... Why not wrap the shark fin?

Could you buy a gloss black shark fin from BMW?

Indeed you can, but it'd be much MUCH cheaper just to paint your existing one black.

Where did you get your wrap done and how much? I've got an EB2 also and I'm digging the gloss black roof.

miretni · 04-18-2014, 01:37 PM

Is this 3M gloss black or high gloss black from other brand?

I had the same idea as you to do mine but they ask me for 350,, but am not to sure if to so it or get a race chip ,, what do you think ,, you car looks sick

SteveL1 · 06-21-2014, 06:23 PM

A solution to the delicate nature of the wrap is to add a second layer of clear bra material over the black wrap.That can be buffed and waxed just like it was painted. A friend did that to his M235i and looks great and has held up very well. The problem with the black material or just about any of the colored wraps is it's just ink on vinyl so you have to be very careful with it.

Overshotgolem · 07-15-2014, 07:42 PM

I just did mine and.it was.a disaster . They didn't do the shark fin right . They put.yellow.tape.on top and.told me.to.wait.until today to remove.it because of the rain last night . And today I notice that they fuck up yhe edges really bad I will upload a pic tomorrow so u guy can judge

Overshotgolem · 07-17-2014, 05:58 PM

This is how horrible they put my wrap

FC4 · 07-17-2014, 06:26 PM

LOL. That's shit. Any inner-city ghetto kid without a job and access to a garage could order a roll of vinyl and open up a wannabe wrap shop. It's quite easy to spot them and know who to avoid.

Mine came out perfect. For anyone in the Bay Area, I'd recommend www.vinylstyles.com/
