Default Black roof wrap

Has anyone had a gloss black roof wrap installed on their cars?

Or is that considered too chav?

Depends on colour I think wrong colour it could look just wrong.

Also make sure if you get someone else to do it they don't cut it on the paint otherwise that is going to be a lovely headache in the future.

Done right on the right car, it looks great but could come across a bit drug dealerly if done badly or on the 'wrong' type of car.

I saw a scenic in white with gloss mirror covers in black and a black front over the front grill. Looked very nice to be honest.

My gloss black mirror covers are available now ive put satins on. Gloss black are a r design option for gloss black wheel cars and would look good on a non black car

Might look OK on a light car with the panoramic sunroof.
