But my roof is slatted. About 1/4" between slats. I could see using canvas like an old boat deck and rhino that. Can't help but think the compound corners in the rear would be really difficult. I saw a couple of woodies up close lately and really like the linear grain of the long grain vinyl. I feel I could grain some rubber roof material with a stiff brush, but what if....? The vinyl would be a sure thing. Narrowest I have found is 54" wide and I'd need 20' with a center seam. 525.00 plus shipping
