Default Roof Vinyl Wrap? RS 2.0

I am Considering doing a black vinyl wrap on the roof of my RS 2.0, what do you guys think?

I also used PlastiDip on my front bumper, thoughts? I am going to probably peel it off and do the Vinyl route there, even though Plastidip costed $3 lol

Plasti dips quick and cheap thats for sure. The down side is it can be hard to get even across a large flat surface.

Vinyl will give you an even look just take your time putting it on and work from the center out other wise you'll have big problems

no nerve needed lol. Its easy to work with and if you mess up it just peels off. I plastidipped all the wheel covers when I first got my xD and it came out great.

Lol sadly I doubt it'd end up sticking properly to my bumper. It's starting to crack and peel in the front part.. =/ Someone forgot to primer the bumper before they decided to paint it.

It will stick as long as its nice and clean. My wheels covers were knicked and curbed when I bought the car, which is why I wanted to coat them. It hides alot of the blemishes. If it ends up looking bad it peels right off and you only wasted a few bucks.
