Hi All,
I'm new to the Scirocco world, I should be picking her up later this week and can not wait!!
I test drove the GT 2.0 Tsi, and loved it so much I decided to hand in my Golf Gti Mk5 for it.
It's Candy White, and one of the first things I want to do is paint the roof black, has anyone on here done this? If so what black did you go for?
I've had a rough quote of £250-£300 is that about right?

Wigit is spot on plus it will also save you a few bob, as it ir around £80 to wrap your roof.

I'm down in Swindon so Daventry is a bit of distance! I'll have a look on Google see if I can find any closer.
Do you have any pic's of your roof?

I got mine painted black when I had my Candy Rocco.
Cost me £50 (mates rates) lol. But if I had the choice again, I'd get it vinyl wrapped.
