It would be easy to do the roof yourself, manipulate the vinyl with a heatgun, take your time, put it on wet aswell so you can manouver it then squeegy it out with a credit card sized piece of plastic and a roller, allways from the middle out. Pop any small bubbles with the tip of a very sharp scalpel, trim the edges with said scalpel..jobs a good 'un.
And remember to take lots of pictures of the progress so noone ever again thinks it's that easy to wrap a car roof!
Besides, vinyl wrapped cars only looks good on quite a bit of distance. Up close, your roof will look dull and scratched. And it will never polish up to near the same shine as laquer.

Covering a roof is easy, a full car however is a different story.

Depends what you'll class as easy, tbh. I gaurantee you anyone going at this without any prior experience will make a mess. And that's regardless of whether it's a roof, bonnet or complete car that is being wrapped.
