Or you could Plastidip it. Its paint but can easily be peeled/removed. Bit of prep time but easy enough to with heaps of videos on youtube for the "how to". Phone pictures so not the clearest but heres a few i did about 6 months ago, still looks good in the flesh
Ps Have to admit never even thought of tape though as someone else suggested and I like your roof, the wrap looks good :-)

Lots of you guys are going to cringe at this, but here's how mine is sitting right now. It's around -18*C here haha.

Some days I think I should park this for the winter, but I'm a firm believer that cars are meant to be driven. I didn't spend all this money just to put my car in the garage for 6 months a year!

I agree with your logic. On another note, your wheels are on the wrong side of the car.

Sweet, the blades have cut forward. The wheels are stamped inside RR or LR I think too.

Thanks bro...yeah rr racing aos and titanium intake elbow. They did say at first they may have to charge me a little bit of labor outside of the warranty work because they can't really justify book time when stuff is aftermarket. We'll see how that goes.
