dont worry about it! This is a good thread between about 4 of us who continue to keep it alive! I like all your guys ideas and comments. Im still on the fence about this even after hearing great news today. I went to get my eyebrow tints put on and i got a call on my cell and was talking to my boyfriends brother who knows a guy who runs a shop who was going to do my wrap. He got me a price quote of 307. Well the guy installing my eyebrow tints overheard the convo and said i can beat that. He went and got his boss and we all talked and they told me they would do it for me, shark fin included, materials and everything for $225!

What I'm concerned about is that you paint your calipers yourself, but the eyebrow tints you go to a "guy"?!?! WTF?! Are you slipping?

Aren't you getting paint-matched grilles too?
Anyway, I forgot that your shadowline is bootleg
then yeah, you need gloss, agreed. So we won't have twin cars after all (thank God! hate it when I have a car that looks like someone else's - something tells me, you do too
)
$225 aint bad at all. And the tint guy will definitely do a great job![Thumbsup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/thumbsup.gif)

Lol the calipers were easy. I have never tinted one thing in my life so i didnt want to screw it up and then have to order more tints from carcustomz. You know how impatient i am! I just wanted to get it done right the first time! If i decide to move forward with the black roof letting that tint guy do it might of saved me 75 bucks. So it could be a good thing i let him do it! 225 for the roof seems like a no brainer now...
Eh? the roof is only $225? that sounds great

Check out Lil Mama's Alpine White M5 with matte black roof (MOHAWK as she refers to it) haha
HERE
Skip to 5:30 to see it! I think it looks stellar

But I was talking about good quality pics of e60s with black roofs. Would be nice to know how the black roof was arrived at - i.e. painted, vinyl, what finish, how much, and all that mumbo-jumbo
