I've been looking into this as well. I saw a photo of the RX with pano roof that has an all black top.
Can anyone with a pano roof confirm or take some photos?
But yes, It would look very nice if the top was all black

That seems like a common description for a lot of cars with similar style sunroofs or panoramic roofs. The Audi A3 and Mercedes CLA cars that I have come by to get stuff wrapped have the same issue. The majority of the roof is already black, except for the last rear like 1/3 of the roof or so. Kind of weird for the manufacturers to do this, but probably is due to it being cheaper for them overall somehow to just keep that part body colored.

For me, it's that C-pillar or the rear area, that should be white but you made it black. I think because of that, it doesn't contrast well and looks like one giant roof. I'm going to make mine shiny gloss black but just the middle area from the antenna to the end of the pano roof. That way you have the black on top, the painted area on the sides, and the floating roofline.
