Black Roof?

Hey Everyone

So I did my roof but then the weather changed before it settled and basically it has to be redone... my question/opinion request is:

What do you think looks better ?

Clean and simple or Black Roof

Below is a pic of the current set up before and after black roof

sorry for the low quality pics there are all from iphone camera

I think it looks much better with a black roof...AW pulls it off easily...and I love the look.

I think AW would be the only color that a black roof looks good. Unless it's CF, then any color!

Can't go wrong with black roof. But you missed the two rails on the sides, would look more flush if you blacked out that too.

^^^^^^^ This

Was just gonna say that you need to have the (2) rails that insert into the roof done in black too for it to look correct...

+1 Like it black for sure, just get those rails.

And on another note, those splitters look good! I've seen them but didn't know how they would look, did you get them on ebay?
