First of all, Gloss Black vinyl has horrible texture and will not look like paint whatsoever.
STEK manufacturers extremely good quality film. The film has no texture and is extremely glossy. They make a colored PPF which is completely black.
The roof on this GT500 was previously body color. Now it is black and looks like paint. But really, in some ways - it is better than paint, because it will not scratch or swirl.
The only downside is that because PPF is such a thick product, there are limitations. As you can see, this roof antenna is not wrapped in gloss black ppf. The material is just too thick. It could be wrapped in gloss vinyl, or an accent color.
Cheers
