Have you washed it yet with the new roof? I just wonder if it will be difficult to get it streak free, or if that will not even be an issue....
From earlier, have you washed it yet?

Fair enough, and I am not trying to be difficult, just a word of warning. I assume you are running through an automatic car wash, if this is the case, I hope it is a touchless, if not....

Be careful with that matte vinyl because it can develop swirl marks just like black paint would, that would not look very good.

Awesome looking car.

I appreciate the heads up. I always take the car through a touchless wash.

The guy that did the rear of the car has Matte Black Vinyl already in his shop. For the roof I used 3M which I got off ebay for $50.

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

But I think it was the first car that offered a vinyl trunk lid.
