Default Vinyl wrapping the roof

Hi all,
I'm planning on wrapping my roof in black vynil. Any tip on removing the trim around the roof area to get a better wrap. I'm planning on doing it myself.

Cheers
James

My tip is for you to spray it with plasti dip instead. Good luck.

just remove the silver window trim in the front.
then from the front remove the to thin roof trim. I did it yesterday on a friends car. Easy peasy.

Start on the top piece, it overlaps the side pieces. Dont pry too crazy though, the tab's will break.
