Talking THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING . too outrageous?

i have a DG Coupe. I remember hearing somebody talk about painting the roof top of the car black (like how the MAYBACH is or like the MINICOOPERS)....

So i was thinking about doing the whole black roof as well as painting black my side mirrors housings!

What do you guys think of this on a dg?

Cool

My buddy had it done on his 350Z and it looks great.

It looks like a glass roof panel from a distance.
