Black roof on TB

I have a TB 05 G35 sedan and debating if I should do my roof black. I've been searching and I can't even find 1 TB with this. Therefore, I want your opinions if I should even bother since the car is already dark and its basically black at night.

If anyone wants to photoshop a TB with black roof, I'd appreicate it

My fellow TB owner: I would say leave "as is" Like you said the car basically looks black already unless its in direct sunlight and I dont think it would be noticeable at all.

There's a reason for that. Black really doesn't flow well with TB IMHO so leave her as she is.

if you didnt know it was black you could easily walk past it and not tell a difference

Pardon my ignorance but what is the benefit of having a black roof? Is it purely cosmetic or does it serve a purpose?

the only reason i got mine black is because i had major paint failure on my roof and could not afford to get it repainted really but my friend had some black left over so we sprayed it black

lol, the reason why I was thinking about it because basically every part of my car that's chrome will be black or actually is black. So I was debating if I should do roof, but then again the $150 can go towards something else...hrmmm
