WINKJ Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 All, I am about to wrap my car roof in gloss black and I am also keen on some Carbon wingmirros.... whats your opinion on mixing the two? If it looks too odd I will just stick with the gloss!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukekbrown Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 You need to go with one or the other imo, especially roof wraps and mirrors, I think they need to match. Why don't u get the wing mirrors in gloss black? Haven't seen any Zeds with gloss black mirrors and could look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WINKJ Posted September 20, 2011 Author Share Posted September 20, 2011 Thats my plan - however I think it may be difficult to wrap a wingmirror? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Should be ok to wrap it if you buy some of the Hexis stuff that has just come out - I saw some guys on you tube messing with it you can wrap the stuff around your fist - just needs lots of heat and stretching. What about a respray? Much easier and can be done in gloss black no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WINKJ Posted September 20, 2011 Author Share Posted September 20, 2011 I have quite a bit of hexxis around... going to give it a go! I would prefer to wrap rather than spray to be honest! what kind of heat do i need, i take it a hairdryer won't work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 I used the missus hairdryer when wrapping my centre console...works fine actually, you just need a bit of patience and make sure you work efficiently as the heat comes out the vinyl pretty quickly. Try you tube searching for examples, have a watch at how other people have done it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
