So I'm a new owner of a CW CTR and was curious how much this would cost to do? I think it's a pretty common exterior job a lot of CW CTRs do and really love the look of it. So pretty much a look similar to this

If you do it yourself it will cost next to nothing. You can get all your materials online. 3m,vivvid,teckwrap etc..

Wow, I never would have guessed it'd be that expensive.
Here it would cost maybe 100-150 all in. I'd just buy the vinyl and wrap it myself. Its a nice flat panel to work with so it shouldn't be too challenging.

Did you have a shop do the top section of the hatch? This is the first section I want to try myself and I'm curious how it will go doing the emblem area. Or maybe I just get the whole Seibon Hatch.... ;) It's actually pretty damn cheap for getting the whole hatch!

I love your sig! I have sent it to many friends and fellow techs.
"Keep tightenin' er till ya feel a slip then back it off 45° for the next guy."

One fellow tech friend pointed out that he forgoes the 45deg backoff to avoid it snapping on him and therefore never giving the "next guy" his due pleasure. :)

Just had mine wrapped a few weeks ago at a shop that does a lot of PPF. They used an STEK PPF that has matte carbon fiber pattern (sorry you can't tell in this picture). Couldn't get the film to play nice with all of the roof so the shark fin, vortex generators and 2 winglets are actually painted satin black with some semi-permanent product. Was $850 for all it.

Are you talking about the part above the license plate? Thats the Siebon Carbon Hatch piece.....

You can always do things cheaper by yourself....However, I didnt have the time or desire to mess with this aspect of my build. Me and patience dont go way back if you get my drift....

You can do it yourself that’s what I wanted to but I was looking at the cost of the vinyl it cost $200. This was a couple months ago so the number might not be that accurate but if I were you I would spend a little more and get it done right.

If I were to do it myself, I'd get a 5x8 roll (about 100$ on RVinyl), and paint the antenna cover. Wrapping the fins is tricky if you've never wrapped before.

Just to wrap it with something like 3M 1080, it should run no more than like $250 including labor. I think I paid like $125 for my GTI roof a while ago but the CTR roof looks like a pain with the fins. Plus its bigger.

I was thinking about getting my roof done in a gloss black on my 19’ RR. How long does the vinyl usually last before fading or needing to be removed/replaced? I would try to find a place using quality wrap like 3M but is there anything else to watch out for. Thanks in advance!
