I present to you my evidence:
Matte (aka awesome):
Attachment 83775
Glossy (aka ghetto):
Attachment 83776

I move to motion to strike the gloss
Hmmmmmm, the matte does look good
My V will be smaller though, from the edge of the bonnet near the windscreen, then along the line on the bonnet to the top corner of the kidney grilles.

What kit is that on the 1st pic? looks awesome!!!

I think it really depends on the car and the overall look the driver is going for. Some cars look better with the gloss and some with the matt but overall....It looks great either way. If your going to have more matted or flat items or even carbon, go with matt.

gosh im so confused now.

i came here to post that im having second thoughts and dont want the car to look over done with the gloss black roof. i saw the pictures with the matte black and it looks amazing! I dont have any matte black on my car....although i am getting rid of the black grille's for color matched so maybe the matte would look good. idk....

you do have matte black ALL OVER your car - think about it: tires, shadowline, etc, etc, etc... a LOT of parts to play off of

I was just looking through some M3 pix on bmwusa.com and found this:

Black vinyl roof-a0088874_758x335.jpg

Now I'm actually thinking a CF vinyl roof would look nice on my AW... so yeah, for me its between glossy CF and matte black... back to square one, basically...
