Pennies Earned Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Thinking about painting my roof black. I've seen one or two that have painted the entire roof black but what I'm really looking for is someone who has painted the roof black but left the A pillar and along the top of the doors the normal color. Pics of either would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocashrider Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 i have seen both done before on different cars (non subarus) and personally out of all the ones ive seen it looks the best if you do the pillers also especially if you have tinted windows. I think it looks best when you do have your windows tinted but thats just my personal opinion your may be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartless Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 +2 - if you're gonna do it, do the pillars, too - it just looks weird if you dont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbeerd Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 x 3.. it will look way more natural with the pilars done as well. there wont be an odd 'cut' line where the color changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xbeerd Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 ifyou arent going to do the a pillars, i'd go with the 3rd option. just gotta make sure the line is straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennies Earned Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 yeah, option 1 was never really an option for me. May consider option 3. Thanks for the photoshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
