White 997 with gloss black roof?
I am thinking of having my roof wrapped in black. Thoughts?

What type of shops do this and what's a guess on the cost?

Thanks

I saw a white 991 with a gloss black roof and I LOVED it. Seriously debating on doing it to my car. Looked seriously slick.

My guess it's between $500 to $750, it's not as difficult as doing the whole car.

I think what you saw was a 991 with a glass sunroof. From afar, it will look the same...

I would agree with the quote numbers from Ynot, might even be less depending on the shop. Have you called around yet for a price?

I would assume any shop that wraps vehicles or even one that installs a clear bra could handle it.

Looks great if you have other black accents like rims/mirrors/spoiler/emblems/exhaust tips etc etc
