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!
I agree with Puck....its close enough in color that you probably could pull it off, esepecially with the wheels and kidneys already black. I dont know if Id have the kahonees to be the first to do it though. So I say go ahead and do it for us, so we can see if we like it!

I was thinking about doing this as well, seems a lot of the e46 guys are trying it and from all the ones I've seen it looks great. I good way to see what it would look like is to take a look at the silver audi a3 which comes factory with a black roof also the new MB c class comes with black roof also.

I've seen the MB silver with black roof, and I wasn't feeling it. Just my personal opinion.

if I ever get around to getting an Mtech kit, I'm going to paint the rear diffuser in black and do the roof in black as well. I think it looks good on silver.
