My roof is/was painted black.

1st one to have done so..... and not sure if anyone else has.

Have gotten tons of compliments on it.

Don't ask for pics, just do a little searching. There's plenty of 'em posted around.

I have thought about it too.  BPD's came out nice.  I was also looking at the vinyl wrap but I don't know how good it would work with the moon roof opening.  I pictured my roof done black and with the black/machined TSW Tremblants.  I think I'd like that!

so should i get it like repainted? i would love to get that black with the pearl in it that ford sells.

That's probably what I would do.  Tuxedo Black has a lot of color in it.  But IDK, maybe just gloss black would be good.

Vinyl wrap can be done with sunroof, and is likely cheaper and can be reversed ( pulled off).  I am considering it with my white G8.

This is another one of those fads I just can't understand.

I was just looking at some cars done with the vinyl.  It doesn't look bad.  And, your right!  Cheaper and reverseable.

Would love the flat black vinyl on mine.

Flat?  Interesting.  Never thought of it. 

The only problem with the vinyl is I don't think it would look as good or hold up as good as paint.

Just to be different... I had my white roof painted white...  Looks really unique!!!!  Can't tell it from stock.....
