Personally not a fan of roof spoilers but I think if you go with a black roof and black roof spoiler, it might look pretty good. I have never seen a car with both blacked out. In my mind it looks good.

Your sh-t is slammed. Looks !


Vaz, loose the spoiler and wrap the roof! People that know nothing about pano roof compliment it all the time!

I would also suggest selling the diffuser to me!
Diffuser is not for sale!! Btw, that thing will die with the car. We took the entire butt of the car off to industrial epoxy that sucker on there.

1. Remove the roof wing and doing Pano Roof
2. Do pano roof, keep the wing and have it wrapped as well

Your input is appreciated!!







Here is some pics of my old W211 with the painted roof in Gloss black people thought it was a glass roof from a distance but i did it cause it matched the sunroof alot better and i also had the roof spoiler i personally love the roof spoilers but to each is his own. Sorry to attach the whole link but i did'nt have a pic on my computer i could have put up hope this helps some.

Ha! That looks exactly like my old W210. See the roof spoiler in this situation works. You dont have a trunk spoiler so the roof spoiler with pano looks clean. If I had know about this while I still owned my W210 it would have been ON. Clean ride bro, I always LOVED the W210.

whenever i get the time, i will put on my CF roof spoiler. It should blend in w/the rest of the car/pano roof since they are black.

Who painted your grill? Your hood is a wrap? Roof too? Thinking about blacking out some panels too....

You might have to go back to black wheels and off course paint the grille not sure if goes with your taste but since you are doing black roof,CF trunk lip and diffuser then why not i also have the roof spoiler which is coming off as well...black wheels and slam the ***** JMO

Try them on and see if not just have those powder coated i finally decided to go for the CF trunk spoiler since i've had the wald diffuser for a while now and feel like it needs something back there to go along with it, also got the 07' tail lights so im hoping for a change..

Ya the CF trunk spoiler always has me second guessing my self but then I see it on the Silver ride and everything is OK. The wald diffuser.... Ya the 07 tails will give it a fresh up. I really like the 07+ front end also. My buddie just bought a 07 350 and his front end looks G..

I know that front end is sick! we'll see about that one later, another thing has me thinking since someone brought it up to you is the yellow markers, not feeling the black..seen it on a silver and did not look ok to me. Need to maybe see the clears.
