black on black on black

I feel like a gloss black and a matte black on the same car would clash and look weird. The carbon fiber idea sounds more interesting to me.

This, and I personally think a CF roof overlay is too much cf. To me, cf is an accent, and covering the second largest flat section of the car is overkill. I've got a black car with a partially painted cf lip and cf door handles. I'll end up doing cf side skirts and a cf rear diffuser, but that's pushing it.

That's all just my opinion, and it's only worth what you paid for it. I will say that, if you do a cf roof, use real cf. Vinyl just looks like vinyl and vinyl looks cheap. And take whatever you get to a body shop and have them shoot it with a ton of clear coat. Yellow cf looks like crap.
