Vinyl wraps...

I talked to Ben and NWAS is no longer doing wraps. He recommended Seattle Signs, but I wanted to ask about other places that you know if. I want to get the roof of my Mini wrapped in black as well as the gas cap and handles.
My other option is buying the parts down in Cali and doing it myself. I am not the most patient guy in the world when it comes to working on my car though, and that may turn out very badly.....
the handles and gas cap would be easy as they come prepared already from Cali, but the roof is another matter altogether.
Here's the parts

Good luck with it James. Just to be clear, I only recommend Signs of Seattle if you were doing one body panel and/or accent pieces. I would never suggest you wrap a whole car there.

Gotcha. I think I'll get the roof done with John and just buy the accent pieces like the handles and gas cap from the shop in CA as they come pre-done.

I like the look of the handles and headlight trim. Makes me tempted to get themon my car. Where are you getting those from? And are they wraps or truly painted?

I believe the handles and gas cap are painted. The headlight rings are vinyl overlays. The place is Lyles Vinyl Styles in Cali. They are the ones that did the vinyl bits on Fred's old Superleggera.

edit, looks like the door handles might be wrapped too.

I had the roof of my M3 wrapped at Seattle Sign.

They did a good job with the satin black vinyl.

I got my E92 M3 CF Interior Wrap at Seattle Accutint couple months ago. A friend of my also did a CF Roof Wrap for his E92 M3 at Seattle Accutint last month. Just last week, a buddy of my with his C63 AMG also got the CF Interior Wrap done there as well. They really did a great jobs on all our cars.

John and crew wrapped my roof with the vinyl I brought in. They did an OUTSTANDING job. Still looks like new after nearly a year, and they tucked the vinyl under all the trim, around the sunroof, etc. Most people ask if the roof came painted from the factory that way

Thanks for all of the information. For those of you that followed my other thread, I ended up painting everything. This is good info to pass along to others though.
