Love the roof Tay. I've been wanting to do the same thing but everyone says it's almost impossible to vinyl the shark-fin.

Rivenscyr · 06-05-2011, 11:52 PM

too many cuts and small pieces required to do the shark fin

Hmmm, wonder what a AW 1M would look like with a "wrappa roof", tempting.

nah I reckon a shark fin wrap is possible. there will have to be a small line showing where the wrap starts/finishes but could be positioned quite inconspiciously on the rear of the fin.

White shark fin looks good though

retrofitting projectors into stock housing is definitely possible... best case scenario is it takes ~$500 including xenons and all hardware plus 8hours worth of work... worst case scenario is "uh-oh how the F did this happen and how am I going to put this all back together"
