Default PPW Black Roof

Anyone with a PPW have a blacked out roof or preferably Mastergrade CF Overlay?

Really curious too see how it looks on PPW before i take the plundge. Found a few cars with the roof painted but none PPW.

Yes, people have painted the roof gloss black, and yes, it looks great, especially if you have dark tint.

I know people have done it. I just can't any pictures of a PPW with it done. Hence the thread.

Hoping someone sparks up with some pictures.

My honest opinions about it:

From afar, it looks just like black paint. My only gripes are when you see it up close. The overlay itself is two piece, so you'll have a seam running through the entire thing. Another is that it is nowhere near as reflective and glossy as real paint up close.

However, for the price, its a much cheaper/easier route than paint.
