Please don't carbon fiber the roof unless you plan to do it right. Please no cheesy overlay There is a guy in so cal that recently painted his roof black to get the two tone look. Jmmcorante (sp?)

The CF roof overlay would be cool and different IMO. If all you are going for is looks you can get the whole top half of your car in CF. I don't know if the pieces offered would be the same weave though.

Mastergrade has the roof and pillar overlays so you wouldn't have to do it custom. I don't know how much they are though.

If you had a Carbon Hood/Trunk and the roof painted black it would look good, but top half Carboned out would look NICE...

I say do it. CF hood, hatch, roof b-pillars and a-pillars would look hot. Then get a CF whole body kit and fenders and doors and you'll kill Rick with most CF on a Z.
