Personally I would roll it as is while repairing/prepping for paint then it would get a flake roof and a nice satin bottom half.
I really need some of those blinds for my passat, would household blinds look shocking if chopped down to fit?

Wooden blinds from Ikea would work I reckon. Cheap as too.

yep this is mine. its not worth the hassle of a paint job unless it went through a full body off resto.
the rubbed down sections are do to primer being put on it at some point by a previous owner. i would love it to be mint og colour.
the blinds are custom made out of alot of 1mm plys of walnut. each slat is 3 plys glued together then cut and shaped. tho i do want to redo the sides to profile the windows better.
