Had the "Pano Roof Mod" done!

I was able to get a good deal on installation of the gloss black vinyl so I decided to go for it. I love the way it came out.

Looks good! That is probably the best visual mod for a silver e55 that does not have the pano option.

Your worst nightmare...
That looks really good. The best thing about this is the looks less the added weight of the damn pano it weights nearly 100 lbs +

can you find out what they would sell the Black gloss vinyl for. how big is the piece. I would like to do this but I only found the flat black and carbon fiber look. I think Gloss black is the ways to go. looks like glass. very nice.
