vinyl looks like azz imo. keep it to paint. the reflections of anything in the vinyl are blurry compared to actual paint. there are a bunch of threads talking about this. search.

It was cool when it first started, but I don't think they've aged well. Seems its a bit of a fad. Even I don't find it that cool anymore. Just kinda something that didn't stick.

Honestly depends on the original color of the car. IMO it only looks good on white or maybe red but I'm not a huge red fan either. It'd probably look ok with the SS color but other than that just keep it stock.

I like it personally. Paint will give a better clear reflection but vinyl is cheaper and reversible.

Black roof on a black car looks great. Otherwise, on any other color it's not my preference.
