Dude black paint keeps your car cool and reduces heat loss. I say go for it.

nice. I'm thinking of having my roof painted black too. But its already black so I'm not sure if I want to repaint it, because it's already black.

I like that.. vinyl's are meant for my fingers to touch! not my roof

woah woah woah! for the guy who said that "Go Big or Go Home" is a dumb equation.. thats our Solo slogan buddy...

and 2nd.. thats not an equation.. there's no math involved in there.

I think our cars speak for themselves we like to go big!

and you see why i don't respond to most posts for people who wanna be smart asses but their just plain simple minded idiots lol

as for the whole issue. some mods can be cheap and still look good. but the main subject is vinyl or paint. you might as well do it right and go for paint since vinyl just doesn't do it(going by someone who has vinyl on their roof). nuff said. no need for smart asses on here to ruin a thread to answer a question (which the closed minded jackass didn't even do at all).

and as for chrIS250 post. nuff said lol

whoa whoa whoa... not once did i go and disrespect your sht like that i know theres people that dont like the CF but no one asked you for your opinion CF has nothing to do with this thread...

the OP asked a question... we all answered from experience and MISS know it all comes in here quoting iSuxeL and I with something thats totally off the subject... do me a favor and go pick up a set of tampons at the nearest CVS....

TO THE OP! PAINT IT! GO BIG OR GO HOME! (which in easy terms for the handicapped means = Do it right the first time!)

HEHE. well I went to quote the vinyl and it was 230, so i figured id pay a lil more to get it painted. so i found this guy who works at a paint shop, but does work on the side (at his BACKYARD. lol) and he quoted me 200. I gave him a lil bit more because he washed my car and claned the inside. I also plan to sue him again here pretty soon.

if i was to do my roof it would definately by a black shiny paint and would definately by a lexus black paint probably the same color that i could get the rain rails as well, if your going to paint your roof make sure you swap out the rain rails too....

also regarding vinyl vs paint, i have seen some nice Mercedes-Benz C350 sports that have a black roof im sure those are factory colored glossy black paint....
