Default Black roof?

Sup guys I know nobody likes my rims I'm probably taking them off anyway haha just throwing it out there. Anyway I saw a carl ike mine with a black roof, not sure if it was paint or vinyl. Would it look good on mine? I have a flat black stripe and spoiler if it would look good would it look better flat or shiny? An how do I get it vinyl if that's better? [IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

maybe you could just get the design on your hood to continue on your roof? could be looking good all black too, definitly get it done with vinyl (my opinion)..if you end not liking it, can be removed easily. actually doing the hood design on your top would look better if you make it to the trunk etc. so seeing your spoiler is all black and there is no line on your front bumper, i think id go with the roof all blacked out w/ vinyl, would require a matching color with what you got atm..

There are a few cars on MF that have done it white w/ a black roof or silver with a black roof looks really good.

I believe Mayo has a silver with a black roof and it is done very well. I'm to lazy right now to look for a pic of his car but I like what he has done.

As far as white w/ black I'm all for it, my boss is done that way and I love it.

The advantage to vinyl is if you don't like it it can be peeled off, have a professional install it. If you mess it up it won't look so good. Drawback is that over time it will crack and/or peel and will need to be replaced.

Someone is gonna say " Hey dude, plastidip it." DON'T DO IT !!!!

Here is mine. I work for a graphics shop so it didn't cost me a dime. It is all 3M black vinyl. I did the roof, decklid panel and gascap. I'm very please with it. Looks great and the beauty is that if I get tired of it, it peels right off!!

Not it is not the same. What I used is new, 3M premium matte black vinyl.
