ok i want a gloss black roof or a matte black. Cant decide which.

Well the question is when people have done this mod, what do they do about the shark antenna? obviously i dont want a white shark fin. do you wrap it in vinyl or paint it?

If anybody with free time during this weekend could photoshop my car with a black roof gloss and matte i would appreciate it.

opinions?
member alpinewhite has a matte black roof with aw fin and it looks cool! I think you can paint or buy one in gloss black!

I think that your car would look fantastic with a black roof. Do it.

I was going to get my roof done about a month ago, but decided to save myself the $300 on other mods. If you live in socal the best place to go is stickercity. They quoted me at $300 and I think gloss looks better than matte. The guy wanted to sand down the shark antenna and paint it black, but I talked to some guy at bimmerfest who got his roof done at stickercity as well and he told the guy to cut out vinyl pieces for it. If I had a white e60 I would have definitely gotten it done... maybe I should still get my roof done..

i want to also but now im torn between modding ideas.

sell the 167's, take off the black badges, untint the tails. -> buy 166's, get lci tails, leave roof white

these are the two ideas running through my head

I love the way the 167s look on your car. I like them more than the 166s but it's all a matter of personal taste.

+1. Your car looks very nice how it is, I would just get the roof done and leave everything how it is if I were you.
