2008 fx35
I have a white 2008 fx35 and i would like to get the roof black, does anyone know where i can find good vinyl or have any suggestions
 
The material most common and really great for the job is 3M di-noc. Any shop that does installs like this will probably use it. The key is finding a place that has somebody dedicated to this type of work as experience pays off. You absolutely can DIY the install - just buy the material off eBay. But there is a learning curve so you might want to buy more than you really need. Check out installation videos on YouTube.

Several members here on IS use this both inside and outside the car - including roof installations. if you use the search feature you should be able to located a lot of threads using keywords like 3M, Di-noc, vinyl, CF wrap, vinyl wrap...

Just a quick pic of the black roof of what looks like. That one is painted.
I'm getting mine done with vinyl this week. 3M with uv treatment so that it wont fade.

Would you recommend the vinyl or painting it black.? I just got my fx so I'm really trying to do some cool mods on it.
 
I would recommend vinyl! I had mine painted & unless you've got a guy who's done flat black several times & can do it with ease, I would wrap it...

I plan on getting mine wrapped here in the near future, just looks cleaner in my opinion
 
If your going to do vinyl talk to FXchosen1 i believe he us thinking about doing that to his FX35

slightly expensive. one shop in Dallas gave me $600 quote for material and installation. it's a great DIY if you have the patience, a helping hand and knowledge of what you're doing.
 
I have gotten quoted for like 300+. If you get it you can DIT, But it will take a lot of time and patience!!! Are you thinking of gloss or flat black?
 
I got a sick deal of 150.00 to do my roof 3M Gloss Black with added uv treatment. Good to know people lol.
