Help me decide if I should wrap my roof gloss black
I have been going back and forth on weather to wrap my roof gloss black. The look I have been going for is mostly just a simple clean look.
What do you guys think??? Should I wrap the roof gloss black or not? Any thoughts would be appreciated! |

Love the wheels.
I have gloss black wrap sitting in my closet ready for my AW 550xi too. Undecided myself. Looking forward to your decision. Worse case if you don't like it- easy removal. |

Yeah I guess it's not a permanent thing. I just would hate to get it done to only rip it off weeks later. |

Just do it ! Both look uber kleen. Keep it for 12 months and if you want a change then remove it and go back to AW or go with Stars & Stripes roof wrap

Personal preference, I think it looks great both ways on AW. I have had mine wrapped for two years now and I can say it makes the car look a bit more aggressive and gives the illusion that it is lower than it actually is. I also have a simple, clean theme going on with my car, and personally I think it flows well.

Then I'm gonna be the grumpy naysayer and vote no.
It looks super clean as it is now.

I dunno why but I think gloss black mirror caps look a little naff and unnatural. Carbon Fibre mirror caps or AW look best IMO

i thought of CF mirror cap too. Some US seller has it with higher price than eBay, which isn't a problem at all. But i just feel like US sellers getting it from China anyway....so still not sure which source to get it from
