Painted the roof gloss black (Wicked White)

Love the way it came out. Getting a lot of compliments on it. Should look even better when I get it tinted and PC the rims.

I like it.... keeping with the gloss compliments the rest of the cars color.

Not a fan of vinyl.

My cars all have custom paint work done. The TBSS and WS.6 are entirely different colors than stock.

Very nice job. I'm planning on doing a vinyl wrap either flat or satin black to match the front gill on my 2011 WW. I thought of gloss, but now seeing yours I am leaning toward that since it ties in the gloss dark window glass. You have windows tint? How dark?

Ever thought of doing the trunk and or hood? Or would that be considered a two-tone job?

Very nice. If I had a white Evo, I would go the old DSM way and two tone the top in black.

Looks nice. I may consider that on my Ralliart. So glad to see someone gettin away from vinyl. It's cheap, has no gloss, and will ruin a vehicles finish. Did you paint this or a shop?

I said if I didn't like how this roof came out, I would def consider it. I think the car looks perfect right now and I don't want to go overboard.

Thanks, I agree.

Car is brand new, I'm going to have it tinted next week. I'll probably do a layer of 5 and 15 like my TBSS. Love it dark.

I had a shop do it. My father is a manager at a shop so I get the "family" discount lol. I agree 100% on the vinyl.
