Nothing! Paid £50 for meter of it and it's still sat rolled up. When I get round to it the top of the spoiler, b pillars and wing mirrors will be covered. Also thinking about digital camo on the front wings, but can't decide on the colors.

Si,
What about leaving the vortex generator there and CF wrapping the rest of the roof & mirrors? Then painting your gold rims a nice met grey/anthracite to match and jobs a good 'un

I prefer the later style rear window spoiler to the vortex gens though. Vortex gens are an Evo thing anyway arn't they.

If I do that I'll have too many different styles of Carbon then I think, carbon wrap appears to be satin ? but not 100% sure what's available, I like the sound of a black roof, Matt or Gloss but have been advised that gloss can show bad marks, if wanting black then go for a Matt or Metallic Black.

Yeah I think the VG is an Evo thang Mate ? so more reason to get rid LOL, I have a subtle carbon roof edge "spoiler" more subtle than the hawk version window spoiler, think that will go on nice ! and also match my other bit's - wing mirror covers are on the way !!!

PS Yeah wanting a darker rim too one day

Today the VG came off - sorry Jimbob but it's knackerd , now looks like a Quaver !! Got it off with some Pushing/Pulling gentle persuasion with a chisel (no roof damage either) and off it popped - It was like that Nursery Story, where they all try to pull that Turnip out of the ground at some points

Adhesive is thick in parts though, so some more work to-morrow Me thinks , then it's Roof Wrap time
