+1 on gloss black. It'll match your sunroof and tint (if you have them).

Nicely done, looks best without the stick-on visors.

The JDM ones hook-in too. I may be biased, but I think they look pretty good!

Yes, I realize review of styling add-ons are highly subjective. And the hook-ins probably keep them from flying off too.

I realized in CL, when someone black roof the car, they have to black out EVERYTHING (emblems, lights, wheels, grill...etc) IMO I think black roof alone looks tons better.
