Couldn't agree more. Even matte is a bit off putting.

Wasnt planning on it. Just a clean Matte or Satin black. I know it will look good with what I'm going for. By the way bro, I wanted that Alcantra steering wheel trim you just bought. I was too slow though. lol

IMHO, if you have a sunroof, the wrap needs to be gloss black otherwise it will look funny..

$200 for just the vinyl right? You have to do the job by yourself?

He also said that since the roof is curved it wouldnt come out perfect and would have wrinkles. I knew this guy was crazy when he ended up suggesting I buy a couple of cans of spray paint and do that instead.

Second place (didnt go to them first because I assumed this would've been the more expensive spot) looked at it. checked what the open sunroof looked like and said $200 installed. Getting it done next friday

will do.

still trying to decide whether I should take the antenna off or keep it on and let them vinyl around it. they said they'll wrap the antenna too and it'll look good but i don't know if they'll really be able to do it due to the shape

keep the "antenna" on and have them wrap it. Its going to be a lot more money if you remove it and then have the hole filled. The "antenna" can easily be wrapped and look perfect.
