United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Sport TDV8 Autobiography Santorini Black
Urgent opinion needed

My 2016 RRS AB in black came with a grey roof. Turns out this is wrapped and is black underneath.






It went in as the wrap was flaking so looked like paint. I have an option, get it re-wrapped at dealers cost or remove back to black. I can't make up my mind. Any thoughts or options appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

When you ordered the car did you spec a grey contrast roof? I.e. Was the order incorrect when the factory built the car and the dealer has tried to cover up the fact by applying a wrap? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I would have them remove it and them to agree to have it re-wrapped in six months time if you don't like it.

Cheers guys.

Kev I have decided to have the wrap removed and back to black. I have asked them to put the Protech paint protection on the roof once the wrap has been removed. I do not trust the wrap guy they are using now and unless it looks perfect it will look cr4p in my opinion.

I have black RANGE ROVER text badges on now and a black Autobiography badge so with a black roof I may also look at getting the Off Road front and rear pans removed and wrapped in Matt or Satin black for a more stealth look.

Good choice. I also wouldn't trust any wrapper to wrap my car, there are too many horror stories about scalpel cuts etc by the fitter who rushed it. SOLD - MY16 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic - Fire Engine Red, Fixed contrast pan roof, TV, Dual Screen, 5+2, Privacy, Noble paddles.
