Tungsten Peal....hmmmm....interesting LMAO I personally like the look but the key to styling and modding is to make sure it fits the "Style" youre going for IMO And it has to flow!

I have thought about that also but I don't want to be the guinea pig. I guess it'll look similar to the silver ES350 with Panoramic moon roof.

I've been seriously considering this as well, especially since I have a carbon fiber hood.

Im on the Vortex alot and blackroofing is common...on an IS i think the contrast would be amazing especially that you have Tungsten Pearl, blackouts and a tint...definitely go for it!!!!!

I've been planning to get my roof done for a while. I have been waiting for my Tom's kit to come in. Now I am just waiting for my car to come out of the shop :P

if you are scare, cut some black garbage bags and neatly tape it onto the roof. Look at it and see if u like it because your roof gonna be black, or take a pic of it and post it here and ask for our opinions. That's just my suggestion.
