Replacing the wrap every 12-18 months seems like wayyy too frequently. Are you doing anything unusual with it? Also what are you paying for it cause wraps tend to cost alot. I guess only doing the roof wouldn't be as bad but once a year adds up. |

Yeah it is a bit, however with it being a big flat surface the birds love to make a mess all over it, plus just recently a lot of dried water marks have stained it (I try to keep up on waxing it but it doesn't help). The worst I've had is a leaf from the tree above the driveway managed to bake itself onto the vinyl which has left an imprint with all the leaf vane lines. Having a roof sprayed can't be too much, surely gloss black can't be much more than 250/350? A roof wrap at my local place is about £150, but then you're left with swirls and orange peel from the vinyl texture, which unlike clear coat you can't polish out

I guess you don't have room in the garage to keep the bmw? I def understand it getting run down faster if it's always outside... especially if you're somewhere (in the UK it seems) where the weather is a bit aggressive. Just the roof wouldn't be too bad $$ wise in that range, but still seems really annoying lol. Yea when you skimp on the material/install you get what you pay for though.

Thoughts on all black roof like Aston Marton DBS
Hi, sorry if I have jumped on this a bit late. I have done it and it looks great, only a wrap and as others have said, if don't like its easy to remove.
Quick question what are peoples thoughts on doing the roof and front and back door pillars also, see picture of DBS, I think it looks superb. https://www.motor1.com/reviews/26060...a-first-drive/ |
