Has anyone bought this
If so how is it holding up? Hows the finish on it? And would you recommend it?

Its just that I am thinking about following the painted roof trend but this can be a cheaper alternative. I just dont want to have to repaint the roof if I ever trade it in later..

 

+1 I would also want to know how is it holding on

 

bluebat makes great stuff!!

 

PM g35pinoy (that DG coupe in pic) or bluebatmobile and he'll direct you the right way..

An overlay will look very good and be a lot less $ than painting it. I have overlays on all my door handles and they have been very resistant to scratches and fading over the last ~9 months.

 

where can i purchase this???

 

^^ bluebatmobile.net

and some other member from here offered me some,,

 

I just cant decide if i should paint my roof or buy one of these,, which one do you guys think will look better, I am also thinking of putting extra clear coat if i am painting it,

 

I would think painting it would not be a DIY, wouldn't want to have a $40k sports car with a $200 roof job. Paint will be more expensive, more labor intensive and more prone to wear. Also, if your current paint is at all faded and you get a brand new, glossy (esp. w/ extra clear coat) top, it may not look like it matches. I would definitely go with the overlay. Less expensive, DIY (with a friend or two I'd imagine) and if it doesn't match, you've not invested much.

 

IMO I think you should buy this first and try and see what it looks like before you paint..its an easy solution and very in-expensive.

 

i had my roof painted before anyone ever came up with the idea of the overlay. If I had a choice now, I think i'd really consider the overlay. However, my only concern is how are they holding up against washing and waxing? I am able to wash and polish my roof to a top notch shine, I'd imagine you cant do the same with overlays.

 

Well I emailed Bluebat, see if he gets back to me. I think Im going to try it, just to see. I would paint my roof but I dont want to do it and not like it. Plus if I ever trade in the car I can just remove the overlay. If the overlay looks like **** and I am happy with the black rooftop then I will consider painting it...

 

Yeah Good choice i will probably do the same,,

 

Or you cn wait untill he tries it so you don't blow your money. That's just the smart way of thinking.

 

^^ yeah we will see, i still wont do mine atleast a month from now,, Its just that i got a Friend at a body shop who can Paint this for me for free,, so i am not really wasting any money on the painting it part,,
