With the vinyl wrap, do you need to be careful and avoid the area when waxing the car?

Nope, wax should help it last longer, just no abrasive chemicles

Best visual mod for the buck IMO. I would do it again on any car (except black).

Beautiful! I was just about to ask if anyone has done the roof wrap on atomic silver.
Other than black, I think roof wrap works on all colors, especially with tinted windows.

Anyone has a nebula grey with black top vinyl wrap? I 'm not sure if it'll be noticeable and still contemplating about it. I was actually pretty surprised that atomic silver came out really well with black vinyl wrap. May be nebula grey works too? please advise or post a picture

I was thinking the same thing! Have a Nebula Gray as well. I'm not so sure if I want to do it. The chrome delete is definitely needed
