question on restorationxrtdx8 05-12-2007, 12:23 AM ok some people might freak out about this. I'm looking to get a challenger to "restore" it, i don't want a convertible or vinyl roof, but as you probably know its hard to find what you want. So my question: is it possible to remove the vinyl and then paint the roof, or is the vinyl roof going to be way different then the ones that are factory painted? maxwedge 05-16-2007, 12:50 PM The vinyl can come off and the roof painted.
