    I did mine in blue CF thinking it be closer to my paint color. I should have gone black CF. For $50 I'll probably change it out this year.

    I don't think it would look bad but if it does you can pull it off. You could test it for less with plastidip just be sure to wax it before you do spray it.

    Not that it's what you asked, but why in the hell would you want to do this?

    If that's the look they are going for I'd suggest they do it the right way and just have it painted.

    The vinyl is much more reversible it would only leave some adhesive which could be removed though.

    Vinyl is only $50 for the roof. And only takes about an hour to install, and can be removed in less time should be change his mind.
