What look do you like better? Black roof or Carbon roof cap?

I'm trying to decide what mods I want to put on my car this spring.

I know the price of these two is very different, but I don't care about the price, I'm just curious to see what people think looks better?

Black Roof or Carbon Fiber Roof Cap????

The only thing I really don't like about the Carbon Roof Cap is the fact that the roof cap has large gaps at the end, I think they have vinyl for the edges now, but I have not seen pics of this.

Black overlay roof. Cheaper and cover the edges way better than the cap.

Personally I like the CF more. I do like overlay too and the fact that is one tenth the price, I would go overlay with a white car.

neither on ur car. for some reason i don't know about the black overlay on a white car with silver rims. it's going to draw too much attention and i'd leave it looking clean. that's just my opinion though

if not painting it then go with the cap. make sure they include the vinyl so it all looks black on the edges as well. Black would be nice but CF is just sick

I'm back on stock wheels, and I'm going to get a black rear valance to make it flow better.

I really need to see a car with the CF cap, and the vinyl installed.

Love the way Carbon Fiber looks and shines but don't like the gap and how the sunroof doesn't look flush anymore. I'd would suggest going black and save the cash for other mods, and I probably will myself.
