Sounds like it would look good but that black roof is just going to draw heat like crazy. You'll have an oven on wheels.

I think that sounds pretty cool. It might even look cool if you take the black all the way down to the trim line in the doors.

i was thinking about gunmetal black on the stock rims, i thuoght about black to there but keeping her clean would be a pain. heat isn't a big deal with me i ride with the windows down anyways (not that i wash her that much bu ya). i'm but sure what shade of black for the rims, but they will be a black of some kind.
