Contemplating on getting this done or not. Keep in mind my Zenetti fives are black/black lip/ and Im getting the bezel painted black...also have the matte black grille.

SO should I do the roof black or no?

IMHO, I think black roof looks best on [Alpine] white cars.

I think it could work out nicely!! It looks great on White cars and Silver is just a bit darker than white, so I say yes! Besides, my roof is painted black, and I love it!
