Paint removable roof "Carbon Flash"?
My car is a AW/Red 1LT, NPP, Auto
I ordered a aftermarket stinger stripe. I'm also thinking about having the roof painted carbon flash to match the rest of the black bits and pieces on the car. I think the black roof will really tie everything together
Thoughts?......and yes the hashes are just vinyl.

I think the painted roof is an excellent idea. With all due respect, the red hash stripes doesn't work because you've added a 3rd color that's totally unrelated. Also, I'm not a fan of vinyl on cars. I do like your idea of the 2 color white with black detailing theme..
I am having my hood stinger stripe painted in Carbon Flash Blk.
By the way, I see the P51 in the photo. Do you fly RC? I have attached a photo of my '51. No vinyl decals on it either....all paint.

I was thinking the same thing, paint the removable top carbon flash to match the mirrors & spoiler I wonder if they have a carbon flash vinyl it would be a good test prior to paint I like the look of the clear tint to but don't want the heat I'll be standing by waiting for pictures

Bob,
I must say I am normally not a fan of white but this particular combo looks very good. With all due respect I would have to say as well that those hashes do not fit at all. I can see your thought process but to me they look like a cheap add on that takes away from the rest of the car.
I'm not sure how painting the roof would turn out but I am a huge fan of the exposed carbon fiber roof. I saw one on a Velocity Yellow C7 with the carbon flash mirrors, Z51 Spoiler and black wheels and it looked incredible. That is my combo for next spring.
Good Luck in your decision!
