Too late now for opinions, isn't it? ha ha
Looks good. Personally I think it would look better without the roof spoiler but that's just my personal taste. Keep up the good work. I'm glad to see you've chosen "car" over "bills".

Looks good. I think IMO you need to paint the edge strips that are located on each side of the roof. It would flow better with the roof spoiler.
I too was thinking about doing a black roof, but not sure how it would go on a white car (no tint, just factory blue tint) since I am not going with blacked out wheel theme.
Are you planning to do any other part with black color?

I was considering doing the silver strips in black but decided against it. The strips can be removed and sprayed at any time. I think it looks better this way, maybe tomorrow i'll think differently
I dont plan on doing anything else black on the car except tinted windows. Maybe later down the road refinish the center of my wheels black or pick up a new set of black wheels. I am working on getting a custom silver c/f hood. If anyone else would want a c/f hood let me know and maybe we can get the price down. I havent been quoted aprice yet thouhg.
jt-yea I could only hold out modding a car for so long. I lasted what? 2 weeks? Anyways, I like the way it came out alot but thats just my opinion. I actually LOVE the roof spoiler but hey everyone is entitled to an opinion. Thats why we mod anyway right?

I like the way the LIPS on your wheels shine Blackbenzz. Are the lips polished or is it chrome.
I'm still trying to find a shop that will install the decklid spoiler for me. This one shop in Concord quoted me $600 to paint and remove the lorinser indent and serial numbers off the tail. Thought that was a little too pricey.. anyway Can I get you to PM me how much you paid to have the tail installed.
Thanks in advance!!
