Default Black Mustang with Matte black roof...I did it!

So it took convincing myself for a month to try, and after not seeing any pictures of one done I decided to go for it. I figured it's 3M vinyl and I can always pull it off. Unfortunately it's really hard to get good pictures of it but I thought I would try. I also took some carbon fiber vinyl and wrapped the faceplate of the stereo section.








It took me a little while to really like the matte black roof after it was done and honestly you can't even see a difference most of the day unless you walk up close to it. Anyways, thought i would share; it should look really cool this weekend when I put the body kit on!!!

I really like it! I am going to be doing this mod myself soon. I think you should do a matte black blackout panel too

It looks like a quality job but when I first look at it it kinda reminds me like maybe someone dropped something on the roof and it only has a primer coat waiting to be finished in that high gloss black. There is someone that goes to the Scottsdale Pavilions and has the whole car done with the mat look. It has the appearance that the factory skipped painting the car. Its your car and what you like is up to you.

Cant say it looks bad. Kinda like it but it is odd that its just the top. I could grow to like it, but it needs something, just dont know what it is
