Im gonna go Matte... thought about it on the plane... Im going to see how much a new roof panel is if I can even just order that... because newnissan body parts come matte black

carbon fiber fenderswould bee too much on my car with all the CF already... CF Hatch might be on the way though...

Clear coat. I assume you're just painting the roof area (between windshield and rear glass) black and not the pillars, correct?
