Default Black roof in chicago

Well i was debating for about a month wether to paint my roof black on my 06 gs300. So i finally decided today to do it. Also i tried getting all my chrome trim wrapped in black but unfortunatly it didnt look good enough for me on the silver color. So i decided to try the color of the car on the chrome pieces and painted the roof in toyota 202 black. And i am really happy with the way it turned out.

Here are some pics let me know what you guys think.

The black roof looks GREAT. Where's the rear window spoiler? Are you painting that black as well (I think you should, btw)?

I REALLY love the color matched chrome.

I'm waiting for you to end up building this:

That painted chrome part looks good, Are you going to paint the chrome on the doors?
