When visiting my mother in Fl I saw Vinyl rooves on showroom cars. I figured it was the over 70 crowd getting them. Looks real tacky on a Lexus. The only thing that looks worse is a fake rag top.

Do you prefer it for the aesthetics or just because it's reversible and close enough in looks?

i'm right in between... although i don't have a lease... if i were to paint... i need to paint black... then white again... if i vinyl and the clearcoat yellows.... i can just sand the clearcoat down.... then get it coated....

on top of that... i've seen vinyled cars... i'm content... many has said that it looks matte black at night and the scratches... i don't really care... on top of that i install my own clearbra and tints... therefore... i don't see why i can't handle a vinyl at all...
