Did you have yours done on the M3 or you don't have a sunroof?

i think you should wrap the roof before you really paint it, if you are going to paint
that way, at least you can look your car with black roof, if you dont like it, then take it off, if you really like it, then think about to paint it or not, you still have choice

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?
do it gloss black i painted my roof but take a look at my car and see how it looks

Hey, new to this forum, surprised I missed this thread, figure my buddies would put in a few words for me, guess not. I have my whole roof including the shark fin covered with Vinyl Gloss Black. Unfortunately my Photobucket is down atm.... But here is a link to the pictures I posted a while back, you could keep checking it and hopefully it'll be up soon! LoL

Screw seeing his car, I wanna do mine already!

I'm definitely going with vinyl, but I'm not sure whether to go gloss or "semi-gloss" (satin) finish...

I think I have found a place to do it for me as well.

From what I have seen on their website they do CF vinyl wraps and loads of other funky designs, hopefully they will have just plain black for me.

May try to see if they can do tint film on my eyebrows, rear turn signals and rear reflectors.
