Hey guys I'm thinking about painting my roof black on blue slate. I think it would look well with the theme of my car, but I've never seen anyone paint their roof black except on white cars so I'm a little skeptical. I'm trying to go for a clean look. What do you guys think?

Also how do you remove the antenna? Because I need to get that painted as well. Is there is DIY on it? Is it just 4 snaps do we have to remove the headliner?

Here's pic of my car:



Thanks in advance!

 

try a photoshop first
and maybe get a roof overlay , might be cheaper than painting, and if u like it then make it permanent, way to step it up for all BS's!

 

you remove the roofliner and there is a bolt you unscrew. I learned the hard way i thought it would come off and i messed it up.

 

paint the roof bro....paint it...!

 

I think Im gonna be on the other side. I love the rims on that color car. You have a nice combo, as a matter of fact I think the tinted tails are too dark and takes the luxury of the car away, I would leave them stock, whatever you decide good luck

 

I actually like your drop/wheels setup the way they are, blacking out the roof might throw it off over the line, my vote is no (but it's your car remember lol)

 

Sam what do you think of the tail lights too dark

 

Well I can't really tell from the pix since it's edited on PS somehow to remove the shine from them.

OP can you post un-edited pix so we can see if the colors flow together in reality?

 

a black roof wont be as visible on your color unfortunately..

 

i think a little restraint would be best... your car is already nice looking.

 

can't wait to see an athens blue with those wheels

 

yeah very good

i have a blue slate sedan, it basically looks just like your car but different rims, and mines a sedan...i am thinking about painting mine glossy black as well.

 

i say yes.... car is flawless btw

 

I agree with this guy on the tails. WAY TOO DARK. Lighter shade black or just leave em stock red. Looking good though.
