Black roof?

[Scoot]

Do people think this would work on a iceburg silver 172?

 

[Steve 182]

Depends on what black and if you were to just do the roof?

 

[clairemae]

add a matching bonnet... like carbon then maybe yes

 

[Fletcher]

Do a photoshop of it.

A carbon fibre roof skin skin would look good.

yeah thats what i was thinking a gloss or pearl black with a gloss finished carbon bonnet would look good.

 

[Scoot]

Just roof i was thinking gloss black probally

Taxi?

 

[Scoot]

Eh? dont think ive ever seen a taxi with a black roof?

 

[Craig]

carbon bonnet and black roof would look cool

 

[Da]

I think painting the roof would be a bad idea, if you didn't match it with a bonnet it would look stupid. Perhaps the taxi wasn't a great example but you get my meaning?

Also it's quite permanent and would devalue the car I believe.

Vinyl Wrap the roof !

 

[Gstar2006]

Thought about it with mine with the carbon bonnet. Not got round to asking for a PS though. Carbon vinyl for the roof?

The taxi's when i was working in Egypt had black roofs.

And they were Yellow Lada Riva's

Vinyl Wrap the roof !

Would you get vinyl that wide ?

Or would there be a join down the middle ?

That looks not bad
Any of the front ?

And i take it, its a 1.2 or something going by the sideskirts ?

 

[Amy]

I was tempted by this sort of thing on my RB, dunno if I'd get away with it though.
And i can't see pics at work

 

[Eckascliovalver]

Back roofs look awesome on silver cars! very dub

 

[jesus]

Mine has a black roof, it really suits the car IMO.

not with the black / carbon fibre roof mate, thats a photoshop, might be able to see if ive got some other pics that are suitable to chop of the front of the car.

and yeah its a 182 rep mate

 

[Jungle_Jim]

only pic of the front i had was this but there isnt much of the roof in the pic, i chopped it anyway, hope it is of some use

 

[Amy]

Looks alreet that.

 

[Scoot]

Can someone photoshop it on my car? Hopefully this pic is good enough.

Black roof + mirrors + bonnet FTW!

 

[Gstar2006]

Really liking this look. Might have to be on the cards once I've sorted out my handling. Might make a difference to my alloy choices though. Was going to go for anthracite as not over keen on black but wondering if they might be better black with carbon bonnet and a black/carbon roof. Hmmmmm.

Ive been thinking over the last few weeks whether to do the roof and spoiler black too. Even thought of smoothing the aerial base off too, hmmmmmm decisions.

go with ford graphite grey metallic mate, it is what i used on my car ( wheels see pic on page 1, badge ^) its a dark anthracite colour with loads of flake in it, it is better than pure black, as black wheels tend to look flat and also makes your tyres look grey

Maybe a mini would of been a better comparison?

Lmao - love it!
