chinkamon Posted April 11, 2021 Report Posted April 11, 2021 Hi all, In the middle of vinyl wrappin the car an came to a sticking point I done a white stripe on my car like b4 but I'm unsure whether to do a white roof ( for ease) or keep it blue ( not as easy) what's Ur opinions. Excuse the pictures but they're to help with visualising the outcomes
katana Posted April 11, 2021 Report Posted April 11, 2021 White vinyl cloth roof maybe but otherwise a solid body colour all over + white stripe. 1

The prob I have is vinyl doesn't come in length an width enough to cover the roof so I either have to b creative with vinyl or paint it white, hence seeing what the common thought was
colr6 Posted April 11, 2021 Report Posted April 11, 2021 Vinyl roofs have seams in them approx 6” from the sides would that help with your limited sizes ?

Ooo do they?? My first thought was f**k it I'll paint it white but wasn't sure. Then thought I'll wrap it blue same as the rest of the car maybe a white stripe down the middle to cover the join in vinyl but that's good to know thank you col 👍
DT36 Posted April 12, 2021 Report Posted April 12, 2021 On Escort vinyl roof the C Pillar runs up as one piece and across the whole roof. Nothing on B pillars. A Pillars come down a little bit from the roof, then have a fold/joint. They then run down the full length of the A Pillar.
chinkamon Posted April 13, 2021 Author Report Posted April 13, 2021 Thank you all. It's the same thought I had, blue roof is better, Now just have to work out how I can wrap it without looking sh*t 😂 Although I won't use vinyl again, my thought was it'd b cheaper an body work won't have to be as mint as a paint job, nope absolutely completely wrong 😭 the vinyl shows every tiny imperfection and emphasizes it 😔😔 the doors look bloody awful now
BaileyMex Posted April 13, 2021 Report Posted April 13, 2021 Why not do something similar to a Mex roof stripe? 2
chinkamon Posted April 13, 2021 Author Report Posted April 13, 2021 Yea I think that's going to be the way forward
