E36 Roof vinyl DIY!!!!1!!!!!
OMG!
Step Uno... With awesome form and dedication wash the vehicluar, in this case, an E36 325is leaving the specimen squeaky clean to the point where you can't directly stare at it in direct sunlight... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0685.jpg Step Dos... Obtain an empty spray bottle and empty it...:confused: Fill it up with water and add a smidgen of hand soap...shake vigorously for 7 to 190 minutes to mix thoroughly... Label thusly... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0687.jpg Step Tree... Take your vinyl and with swift hands lay that sh*t down... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...DSC_0689-1.jpg Step Floor... Take your soap n' water and spray the roof liberally to prevent sticking... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0693.jpg Step Fyve... Realize you were supposed to take the white paper off first and get it wet making it stick to the vinyl when you peel it off... Take a credit card, assume the position, and start removing as much as possible while mouthing a few curse words... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0696.jpg Step Sicks... When you're done getting the white paper off...respray the roof with soap and re-apply vinyl.. http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0697.jpgst Step Slevin... Apply squeegy working your way from the middle to the out... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0698.jpg Step Ate... With precise precision and ultra sharp razor blade, trim the excess vinyl... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0699.jpg Perfect form is a must... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...DSC_0700-1.jpg Step Nein... Almost done http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0701.jpg Step 10... Fail at getting the ends to stick leaving you with Evo Style spoilers... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0706.jpg Step 11... Initiate test drive mode... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0709.jpg http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0711.jpg LOL at the flapping vinyl... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0717.jpg http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0720.jpg Step 12... With hand, re-apply vinyl... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0725.jpg Step 13... Accept defeat and peel off vinyl, crumple into spherical shape and apply onto roof. http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0726.jpg Step 14... While eating Pita Chips...contemplate deeply (DEEEPLY) on how much fail that was... http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/z...w/DSC_0729.jpg YAY! The End... Love, -R |
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
:bustingup :bustingup :bustingup Funniest DIY I've seen in a long time! :thumbup: |
BWAHAHAHA :lmao:
Sama takes the best pics lol I'm kinda glad that it didn't work out, blackroof=panda_fail |
good write up!!
I see that you attempted this by yourself, to do this project right you need more hands as many as you can get... I vinyled my brothers protege about a month ago, it turned out okay, and even then I accepted defeat |
Best part... "With hand re-apply vinyl" :lmao:
Must admit... although it was a complete waste of time.... that was ridiculously fun :thumbup: And Alan... yes, i didnt like the black roof look :dunno: |
awww :( haah funny DIY tho!
|
Yeah you never know until you try it. Amanda and I were literally LOL-in at the write up! Nice work guys
|
Take a bow gentlemenses. Badly done but in good form!
|
Sorry it was fayle, but man, that was funny! :bustingup
|
Beautiful. Well played. Looks great.
The invisible vinyl mod is FTW! :D |
Nothing like some Pita chips and fail with some Palmolive to wash it all down.
FTW. |
Bravo Randy.... Didnt expect the write-up to be as comical. And way to ALWAYS take pics of me halfway through a bite or blink or sentance :lmao:
Dammit |

I am still going to try this soon. Why didn't you guys use that window tint stuff? It dries a lot faster.
