Prob a silly question....but...

can i have a black roof!? know you can buy decals with flags etc, is it possible just to get a black one? or would it look to obvious that it wasnt standard? has a wee look on web but cant see anything....

If you wanted a black roof it wouldnt be too hard for any competent paintshop to do it for you.

You could of course get a vinyl decal black roof but how durable and good it would look im not quite sure of.

mmmm, there is an idea.

so next question, a competant paintshop, as close to Livi as possible...

what does everyone think, all silver with black stripes look a little strange, better with black roof and mirrors?

That's it before I bought it.

Then after my car was vandalised I couldn't be bothered paying for a new set of stripes, so I decided on a little change.

If you are considering a coloured roof i would advise getting it sprayed, i don't think a roof decal would work, all in my humble opinion :)

I kinda have to agree with Bonnie, the decal might look good in the short time, but I don't think will be very durable over time. :)

you need to get yourself some clear side repeaters to finish it off.;) ... and a proper number plate... :rolleyes: ;) :D

That's my big number plate!!!!!!!!!!! The letters and spacing are all legal, it's just shortened. The wee one's sat in the kitchen.
