Wink Ok, I need your opinion!

Soo im thinking about wrapping my WDP tls roof in black vinyl. I also have a BDP painted roof spoiler that i havent put on my car yet because i was planning on painting it white like my car. Do you think a black roof will look good on a white car? also if i do the black roof should i keep the roof spoiler black and not paint it?

Plus it protects the paint underneath it from the elements so if you do remove it, the paint will still look pristine underneath.

Justn beat me to it....

why dont you also look at 3M CF (carbon fiber)....i think the CF looks awesome on WDP's....and you can cover your roof + XM antenna + roof spoiler in CF...

Yeah it'll look good. I think the roof spoiler would look better in black.

Without a doubt the black vinyl roof looks sick on wdp.

I think it would look off if you have a black roof with a white roof spoiler especially if you have dark tints.

The black roof will look good on your WDP, just make sure you do the xm antenna and the roof spoiler black as well

might be a weird question...but is the whole black roof thing cool because it looks like you have dual moon roofs? Like a high end Mercedes for example?

thats the whole reason, i'm here!

but one does have to question your female card.....
if you have clashing elements on your car, one can assume that you have a clashing wardrobe.
we'll need pics to see if you match.

I say keep the roof white unless the paint is damaged/blemished so bad you want to hide it. I cant imagine any blemishes would be noticeable on white..

I was considering a black roof on my ABP due to bird poo marks. They obv dont have a matching color vinyl for ABP.
