Do you guys like it? It wouldnt be true black ... it would be more of a realllly dark grey, just like the newer model mercedes roofs. I have also Painted my grill black and got a flat hood emblem since the last pics. Let me know if you think the black roof would be too much. Thanks!

do it. looks good

[Pablo7]

if you paint the roof, paint the pillars also.

I say paint the roof, leave the pillars white. Looks good.

I think a black roof would look good. First, I'd tape black plastic or some black material on the roof and live with it for a while. Easier to remove taped on material then repaint again in white if you decide you don't like it.

where in newport do you live? I think I have seen your car around there.... I am usually at 13th or 27th street, you should go to the oc meet if it ever gets going....

[MeanC43]

I got a Quote from a local place and he said it will be about $600 do have it done with high quality. I live in The Villa Siena Apartments on Jamboree and Michelson. And the answer is YES, i will for sure go to a local meet!

[Ashkan's C280]

also check out Auto Network in San Gabriel, give Jon a Call 1.626.272.3611. He has painted all my parts for a very good price and has an awesome turn around time. He painted my bumper in less then 24hrs.

lol, thats what I thought.

Anyways, I dont think you should do it, it looks tacky and is a waste of money imo.

[BBB DRAGZ]

dont do it! :shock:

[Teck]

lol do it :D

[Abuimad]

when selling a used car..the price would severly dropped if the car has a painted roof (or at least thats how things are over here) so personaly i would not do that (but then again i have a black car :D ) but i do have to admit that it looks good.....and it looked incredible when a member here with a silver C43 did it...

[Proven Guilty]

i'm honestly not feelin' it. those rims look great on that car, but i don't feel the roof has clean enough lines to pull off the black roof on a white car because there is just SO much contrast.

love your ride tho! selling any time soon? :D

[vbrock1137]

You should think about going the extra step and doing a carbon fiber overlay. It'd be expensive, but it'd look awesome.

[sultanC36]

dude some of my frinds were telling me to do it on my car and i had doughts

but dude after seeing your car i willllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllll for sure and i think you should do it to

good luck and happy motoring

[The LO C]

Paint the pillars too...not doing that will make your car look like it has a mohawk.

Don't do it! Let's make a vote! I am against it.

[MeanC43]

I dont think im going to do it.... i think it is a bit too much for an every day driver.
