Default need images of AW, CF roof, black wheels and black mirrors and spoiler

I am in the process of ordering a C7 (would have already if the Z51 constraint wasn't holding things back) and need help making a decision on the roof. I am definitely ordering an AW exterior with black wheels, mirrors and spoiler. What I am undicided on is whether to get the CF or painted roof. I have seen a painted roof in person which looks good with the black wheels, mirrors and spoiler. I have also seen one with the transparent roof, which looked like it had something missing without the painted sides (in my opinion). This still looked good, just not my preference and I would prefer to have an opaque top anyway. I have seen a number of images of the CF roof with body color mirrors and spoiler, but I prefer the body painted roof with the black mirrors and spoiler. I really like the way the black spoiler looks from the rear of the AW cars. Does anyone have images they would be willing to share showing with AW exterior, black wheels, black mirrors/spoiler, and the CF roof? I really want to see images showing the whole car from the rear, sides and front? I suspect that the CF roof better emphasizes the lines on the car, but I am trying to figure out if the dark/CF portion of the roof will give the car too much black with the wheels, mirrors and spoiler all in black.

Thank you...

Here's a page with my pics.

Mine is non-Z51 and doesn't have the mirror/spoiler paint package. But it will give you a good idea of the CF roof on AW. I am very happy with it in person.

i am of the old adage, that All Corvette's Are Red, the Rest Are Mistakes, so I have never been a big van of white Corvette's, but I must admit the C7 is absolutely stunning in Arctic White.

CaryKen, Thank you for the pictures, beautiful car.

03SGVETTE, I have been using your album over the last few weeks and it along with seeing a few in person last weekend at the museum helped me narrow my decision this far. Thank you for helping putting it together and sharing.

FEAR, This is exactly the combination I am looking for. If you happen to have a couple others from a higher elevation (showing more of your top) please forward them on. I am pretty close to a final decision. Thank you!

Zee51Vert, Thanks for the referral. I did see this one and there is one image on there from EvilC7, but it did not show much of the top.

Thanks again to all for the fast responses
