That is, that section had not been exposed to the sun and other environmental contaminants and it was obvious. If you wrap the roof and decided in a couple of years that you wanted to take it off, it's likely that your roof would be a slightly (but noticeably) different shade than the rest of the car. At least that was my experience with the stripes which are the same material that would be used in a full wrap.

Thanks for the advice. This was another concern of mine for sure.
Supposedly, with new water based paints, colour change through weathering is practically non existent, but I'm sceptical about it still.
It's a tough choice really.
