So I guess Mercedes-Benz E350's, S550's, and Lexus ES350's are two door sports cars, huh? Haha, some of you guys make me laugh...

I hate ricing out a nice car, but I think that looks nice, man. I'd definitely consider it, but my IS is already black and my wife's is SGM.

I never 'got' the black roof deal, its not for me. I will say thou, 'visual impact'. Good? no, bad? no, definately different thou *for a 2IS that is*. Mad props for doing it.

I give you 3-6months before you peel it off

Sorry but I think that's rice... black roofs are black because they're made of carbon fibre, and even those are ricey to me.
