I think either is nice. Stock preferred though because black makes it look scion-esque

You should go all out and paint it to look like this:



But honestly, I think it makes it look like a tc or an ES.

thanks for the input guys... i decided to leave it stock.. the black roof doesnt match the look im goin for.. want to keep the ride clean.. black roof makes the car too extreme for my style.

I like it stock more, but I like black too.

But I don't like when people overdo with black, black roof, black tails, black emblems, and black lipless rims. I have no one in mind, but "no offense" :P

Keep it stock!

But if you're really tempted, you can always get the vinyl and remove it later if you don't like how it looks.

I don't know if you're trying to make a joke, but that remark comes across as offensive.

LOL.. as funny as that was.... i've never seen a "ghetto car" with a black roof...

i've seen some JDM cars, and what not... and a few german cars such as the S65 with a glass roof (black glass) and yes.. the scion tc with a glass black roof.



I say paint your roof black if you want to. its your car. your choice.

its deff. NOT going to look "rice" if you do it. it will look clean. guaranteed.
