    the black roof on my car is not shiny. its flat black. just the lighting makes it look like that i guess. lol

    would love to do it in CF, but that wont hold up well against the winters we get here. the salt will for sureeee kill it. CF mirrors coming soon.

    Ozie...do it up man, look wicked. get rid of the ralliart inspired chrome around ur grill though....our cars are white....doesnt look that nice. just IMO. :wink:

    vinyl FTW man. if i ever dont like it, i can just take it off. vinyl would def be a better choice!

    Lower the car first before you do anything else... the best 200$ you are gonna spend

    a paint shop shouldnt charge you much for that job, a vinyl that big will be extremely hard to do it flawlessly... go with the CF roof and CF trunk... if you cant afford it just wait and dont do it the cheap way.. you will regret it later...

    hey i had a question where did you get your roof vinyled? cause i was looking to get mine painted but i dont want it to be permanent.
    I also wanted to ask if your front bumper was vinyled too.

    looking good there ozie!! i was also thinking about doing this but i was getting the hood, roof, and trunk in black vinyl...think a graphite gray would look good with that double tone...but now i just dont have the money to do so...
