Painting Roof of g35 BLACK

JUST AN IDEA
please do not flame me
It might seem a little strange, but what are you opinions on doing this, It seems to be popular on ERYO cars... i guess its a euro thing or w/e.. but painting the roof black, maybe to look like a panoramic sunroof..or somethign what the Maybach has...the BMW CSL has a carbom fiber roof, so maybe thats what makes it practical... i dont know its an idea.




other examples:



i did a little photoshop myself, i actualy like the way it looks for some reason, what are your thougts..soemthing new and subtle...in a way?

SORRY UTREVOLUTION for using your car as an example

If you have a carbon hood and trunk go with a black top. I've seen this onb many cars and they can def. pull it off

If you car has the overall black motif, then I think it would look ok. But in my opinion, I wouldnt do it. It only looks good if the top is carbon fiber.

UT's car needs a cf trunk now to make that look insane.

So what should I do with a black G already? I was thinking gunmetal but I dunno lol.. I like straight out black!

import tooner's car looks sick....i kinda like the look. id only do cf for the roof. however, UT's car is also hot w/ that roof. I think cf looks good on only a handful of colors. silvers(graphite/silver), black, IP, Laser red...just my opinion

With a black hood and trunk, it would seem like a good move.

But having an IP coupe, in West Texas, painting the roof or hood black is the last thing I'd want to do.

IIRC Marchesano had it done on his DG coupe with the full kenstyle kit and black Junction Produce wheels, i think... it looked pretty good overall...

hit up his website at www.g35tt.com and goto Exterior Pics at the top... on Page 2 of the pics you'll see his black roof

okay if you have a black car, obviously your really not going to tell a huge difference on a black car, unless you go carbon fiber. I am doing my IP sedan black top.
