Hey guys, been lurking around the forum for the past few months since I purchased my 2017 SR Midnight Edition on July 4 of this year. I absolutely love the car so far. Ever since I got it I've wanted to do a gloss black roof wrap and some tints. I finally got the opportunity yesterday and I wanted to share some photos for anyone thinking about possibly doing the same.

No, I took it to a shop near where I live. The guy has been there for almost 20 years and has done the tints on every car I've owned. Uses 3M materials and gives a lifetime warranty on his work. This is the first experience I've had with the wrap. He did the wrap and tints for $400.
thank looks great. i just got a gun metallic '17 SV on tuesday. I am taking it to get the roof & pillars wrapped tomorrow morning. I am contemplating doing the rest of the car in matte white. I really like the white with the black top and black spoiler...and some black 20s
The wrap looks really good on both cars, I have a '17 pearl white SR and have been looking for a shop here in Connecticut to do the roof- already did the windows- if anyone knows of a shop please let me know!

Very nice. Does look like an SL. I had some fly-by-night outfit wrap my SL top in black. Then to my horror I had to take it to my dealer complaining that I could not see out of my front moon-roof or skylight. The joke was on me 'cause all the dealer did was slide the front moonroof back to let the light in, although I must admit it gets a little damp inside when it is raining. Couldn't help myself. I crack myself up sometimes!
As you can see I've done my hood in gloss 4d carbon fibre and I was looking to do the roof in gloss black. What do you think, gloss black or more carbon fibre? I have 20 percent tint all round if that helps with determining what would look better.
I was thinking also to wrap mine. Suddenly my friend told me to visit Gatorwraps. They have professional installers that will help me. You should try also.

very nice! Looks sporty and fancy 👍🏽just the right touch.
Very nice. Now it resembles the roof of the SL and Platinum models. Two reasons I did not get the SR was I wanted the black-out panoramic roof and I did not care for the harsh tires and suspension. Great car in every other way.

wow, way to sound like a douche. Look at me, I made what I think is a better choice than you, I think I'll just rub it in your face.
Sorry, my post did not come out the way I meant it. I read it a second time and I did sound like I was dissing your car. Did not mean to do that. You had a good idea and finished it up nicely. SRs are better in many ways than SLs (especially suspension and interior appointments), but I never considered that the dual moonroof does black out the entire top nicely, just a you accomplished. Peace bro.
I live in a 30 percent state too, I have 20 percent all round. I have never been pulled over, and a cop lives 5 houses down from me. Keeping it all the same percent looks better than diff in my opinion.

Thanks. Definitely leaning to keeping it all the same, but don't think they'll even do 20% here (Canada), likely will end up with 30% all around.
Hey, I just got my 2017 white SR. Seriously considering the black roof wrap. How are your roof wraps holding up after a few months/years? Still look good? Any regrets?

No regrets at all, 6 months in and looks brand new.
My local guy wants $400 just for the roof wrap, no pillars. They use "The Good Stuff" from Avery. Is this a reasonable price, or should I go out of town for a better deal?
