OMG you're such a chick!

Ok, seriously, I think 166s are WAAAAAY hotter than your Miros, so kudos on that. Black roof - MEGA COOL! Get it, I'll get one too soon - it'll be awe-MF'ing-some!!! I do kinda like your hole theme of black and white, but blue goes well with it too, so original badges will look just fine. Love them tinted tails though - I'd not bother with them... but then again, you always push it just a little further, so whatever you do... I can't wait to see the pics

well if i get the black roof the 167s are staying. dark barrels go nice with the dark theme i have going. ideally i want to sell the 167's, get the 166's - which are obviously lighter in color than the 167's. With the 166's would come lci tails, possibly mtech kit(me and another member are currently trying to work on a deal), stripped tint on the tails and remove the black badges.

So the black roof is only going to happen if i keep the miros but i 100% want to sell the miros buy the 166's and change directions completely. I've come this far into changing the look and now i want to go the opposite directions

Its ok, it happens to the best of... errr... some of us LOL but I would like to point out that the black roof will look excellent regardless of what rims you have. As a matter of fact, I think it is a total misconception - what you implied about 166s and black roof not going well together. They will match just perfectly in my mind.

here is mine
i did the vinyl myself
matte black roof
matte black ac shnitzer trunk spoiler
matte black badges
matte black grill
i just vinyled the orange reflectors matte black
vinyling the mirrors matte black

the fin is alpine white
it is VERY difficult to vinyl the fin
ud have to take it off so find a diy
if you give the part to them off the vinyl places should be able to do it
do gloss black to go with tints and all the gloss parts u have on ur car

So easy to just paint the fin though...

where do you get the vinyl to do it yourself?

+1. Black roof would go with either 166s or 167s. Of course, if you've decided that you like the 166s much better than the 167s that's another matter,

Get a black roof and white powder-coated 166s But you'd prolly wanna change the brakes, so you don't get as much dust
