First, calm down on those caps.

Second, I think you have to paint roof and trunk so it would flow which you end up have to paint hood. So paint everything in the "middle" NBP.

It not ugly, but i would go with a black roof and aspec kit (possibly paint the gray trim pieces on the f/r of the kit black too).

Once you get a theme going it will flow well, i think

You could probably wrap hood roof and trunk and it might be cheaper than painting...also its reversible

Bro, try putting black vinyl over the roof.. Vinyl is the new paint.. If you don't like it just peel it off.

It's NEVER a good idea to paint over the factory paint unless it's absolutely necessary. I think you have a nice luxary TL-S so I wouls like to see the lip painted to match the car. Thats just what I like though. That would CERTAINLY cost you an ASS LOAD less than painting 1/3 of your car as well...imo

Is it really a type-s? tails ar not type-s, and if it is type-s, why didn't you just paint the lip spoiler, instead of getting a new one? type-s usually comes with the lip deck. any who, i think if you black out your tails, side markers, roof, and hood then it would look good, I think. I mean it looks good anyway, it won't hurt to keep going.
