Vinyl roof and valence pictures

Did my roof and my valence gloss black. I bought a blank roll and just made a template for the rear valence. For the roof I just laid it on and trimmed it to size.

I removed the roof rails and the nav antenna which made the install MUCH easier and cleaner. Very happy with the results.

I also have some left over vinyl that I am going to sell. If you are looking for a single piece of vinyl to do the roof in gloss black I'll be posting in the classifieds.

Enough talk, enjoy the pictures. Feedback welcome. (I don't have any photo editing software, these pictures are uploaded straight from my camera)

Very nice pictures. great work on the install.

Dude, the pics look good but don't lie about not post-processing them. We can tell you did....

It's crazy how much better they look with a black roof. It makes the lines flow so much better

Thanks for the compliments guys.
Ordered the vinyl through a sign/graphics store nearby. They had a 10 yard minimum though since it was something they don't stock.

Spacers are 15mm all around.

Um.. ok? I used the iphoto "retouch" tool to blur out the license plate.

Seriously, you didn't do any kind of photo-optimization? Sure looks like a trip through PS to me but if not, your camera skills are better than you claim.
