idk i think it looks good. but definitely a drop and tints would make it look 10x better...
the reason why people think it looks better on a white car is cause of the contrast on a white car.. thats the same as a black car with a white roof it stands out more.. lol

definitely tint it.. i went with 35% cause IMHO i think "limo" tint is tacky. let them see who's driving it. Plus Cali is tough on tint tickets. here's a quick pic of my car shortly after the roof getting painted. I love it. it is subtle and i am for damn sure the only GS around here with it done. Yes i know a drop and wheels are needed but so is a bigger pay check. I will get there slowly but surely. just dropped $300 on maintenance yesterday so that took a little piece out of my build budget 
BTW the tint looks super dark in the pics but it's just the angle and lighting.

I guess "different strokes for different folks". I think silver is also one of the colors that can pull this off, its a subtle but noticeable mod. , but that just me. Next on the list is to definitely get the windows tinted! I was thinking 20% or something, limo would be way too dark! As for the rims and lowering it i'd have to do it step by step
looking good 7DOOBIE7! When did you get yours done?

plus u dont know maybe im REALLY ugly.....or deformed and just wanna live a "normal" life hehehe
OP tint it, it will look better but still dont think it fits your color
I am not asking because I am contemplating doing it...just because I could never imagine that looking good on any black car
my car is black so maybe i should paint the roof white and go "skunk" style.

haha, i didn't even know that it had a name for it, lol. I saw a Mercedes S class and the current model ES350 (both silver) with the panoramic glass roof, so i figured that i could maybe get away with just painting the top black and sorta replicating the look, i was iffy at first but I love it now!
