Don't paint the roof black, thats ghetto. If you wanna have that look, get the roof overlayed with carbon fiber.

I've always thought that if your get a CF hood, rear spoiler and hatch, might as well tie it all together with a black roof.

Looks stupid if it's not, like it's not finished.

Do what ya want.

I personally wouldn't paint my roof black. It's not like someone will be looking at the top of your roof. Most of the time it will be hardly ever notice (if your lookin at the car from a side view).

Do what you think looks good to you. I would leave the roof white. But if you do paint your roof black, make sure you paint your wheels green also.

uhhhh..... okay?

asking for opinions now. so if the people who keep saying do what you want would stop saying it.... that would be nice.... and state an opinion on what you think of it... i'm not asking for you to tell me what i should or shouldn't do.

but for the others thanks for the opinions!

If you really want to make your car look great, you should get graphics overlayed on the side of the doors and roof...Maybe even the hood too. I heard this guy Troy Lee has cool designs, I think they used them in some car racing movie...But I haven't seen it yet.
