    That's pretty cool, great job. Mind if I ask how much that cost?

    Probably be looking for something more subtle myself, although not seen anything I like so far.

    Hard to find many pictures online really.

      £200 all in.

      I don't do subtle.

        I can tell!

        Decent price for all that work, maybe I'll see if I can find a design I'm happy with.

        Trying to avoid looking too 'mid life crisis' if I can.

          I'm still waiting to grow up. Adulthood has got to kick in eventually. Until then I'm going to keep flying my freak flag!

            Few more hours of Google searching, still no closer to the answer!

            The roof has to be black really for me, I just love the way the windows and the roof and almost seamless. Which is kind of the reason I'd not want any design to overlap over the side of the roof.

            Wondering if a high gloss black, but with the metallic specs would look decent or not? Anybody seen/got one... or better still has pictures?

              Kat's roof is gloss black with metallic specs, it looks great in the sun. If you're getting it wrapped I'd look for a company in your area and get them to email over examples, they all have sample books to look through and there's definitely a few choices of sparkly black wraps.

                Like BeefMasta said, the roof of mine has the metallic flecks. I'm due to be getting it detailed on Saturday, so I'll try and get a picture then.

                    For a comparison scale, when our Dad bought a soft top Jeep Wrangler AND Rollerblades, THIS was midlife crisis to us. (It was in the states, so not that bad of an idea you'd think..... but the house was in the mountains)

                      Did you get the detail?

                      Think I've found a contender for mine (pic stolen from Google)...

                        Sounds like he was an early eco-pioneer, rollerblade down the mountain, and get picked up in the Wrangler
