jaffaZ32 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I'm starting to notice coloured Zeds with black roofs. Like the Beet one, like Rainbows. It's a good look, but what made you do it in first place as it could of looked terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krsmayo Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 i did mine too, make the targas look better when off and gives it that new smooth look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkysi Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Mine will be done soon. Something I've wanted to do since I bought the car. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaffaZ32 Posted June 21, 2007 Author Share Posted June 21, 2007 is you Zed original white? and what colour black is it? It blends in well with all the trims. Think it would really suit a carbon bonnet also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbow ZTT Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Shows the lines of the car better. I used a Nissan colour, I'll find out what it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markzx Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 When i first bought my car I did the usual thing and would keep going and having a look at it. You know the that baby is mine syndrome I think we all get when we buy a new toy. Anyway I would look down on her from my office window and think if those bars were black it would flow as though the whole roof was Glass. I was then taling to Luke "Zcentre" about it one day and he sent me some pictures of a car in the states. Next week I did mine. That was 2000 and these days every time I see a Zed with the body coloured bars I think it looks odd. I'll be doing it to my Red SWB as one of it's first mods.

JonLowndes101 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Yep, soon as I get a dry sunny day will be doing mine too... If you llok at the Jag XJ220 it has a similar roof look... Plan to do mine gloss black and then lacquer the it so it gives the effect of wrap around glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonLowndes101 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Laquer over matt black looks more like glass. Cheers Mark, thanks for that! Was wondering what would look more like the original glass. Want it to blend in to the targas nicely... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaffaZ32 Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 I like it, some people also have black nose cone with black bonnet. When i get a Carbon hood nose sure if i should do that bit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaffaZ32 Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 Also did you do inside the T-Top parts. So when you remove the roof it's black around in there too, Also have you done inside the doors? I don't know what level to take it to.
