    I did this about a week ago.

    Black roof, spoiler and VW racing style stripes along the crease on the bonnet.
    just done with plasti-dip for now so i can see how i like living with it before committing to the cost of getting it done in gloss black vinyl



    Any thoughts?

    Tigga, they that TSW Mallory 5s

    Yeh I've been thinking of a matte finish aswell, could look good but I'm leaning towards gloss as it would match the badges, wheels, grill and B-pillars

    Great decision on your part...I see so many people getting it wrong with the mismatching of matte vs gloss etc.

    Everything that's black on my car is virtually matte. After my car was vinyl wrapped, the only remaining gloss parts were the shiny pillars...so I had the guy cover those in matte black as well and it really has set if off. Hell...I even plastidipped the chrome exhaust tips in matte black...and from the rear it just looks mad!! Full stealth mode!

    I'm gonna get some proper pics done this weekend if the rains stay away. The wheels are still a little while off yet but I am about to throw on a set of temporary Varrstoen wheels tonight so I can fatten the stance for these photos.

    Excited!

    Totally agreed too! Gloss black vinyl to match the rest! Personally I wouldn't do the bonnet, but that's just me!

    See, I like the look of the vinyl on that part of the bonnet. I just wonder what would look good on black besides silver
