x2... makes the car look cheap to me when its body color... doesn't really flow well in my opinion.. but my opinion doesn't matter on your car.. haha

very clean work though..

Just because it's a hardtop doesn't mean it's a stripper...hard tops can have power windows and seats and locks and cruise control too you know.

I like the roof black or body color...I was just thinking, you could do the small triangle part of the roof at the back edge of the window in black, but keep the sailpanel and top body color...that might set it off a little better with your dark windows.

the little triangle piece is black, it is double sided taped on the roof panel, and the car does have all power and cruise control, hopefully finish it this week

oh ok lol...I didn't realize it, guess it's just not taped back on yet in the pics you posted

Sounds like you have basically the same exact car as me, 2000 M6 Pewter Z28 hard top with power everything and cruise...and mine is coming out of the body shop after some front end repair/paint work this week too lol

its cool its back on now, and it did exactly what you said , i knew painting the roof body color would have mixed reviews , but i never liked it black cause its not a t-top car, my brother said it looks like a wanna be z28, or a v-6 car on steroids. i really wish you guys could see the color in person pics dont do it justice

Get a real good camera...I've been surprised how good cars and nice paint can look on the computer screen if a real good camera takes a pic of them.
