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.

i did mine too, make the targas look better when off and gives it that new smooth look

Mine will be done soon. Something I've wanted to do since I bought the car. :)

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.

Shows the lines of the car better. I used a Nissan colour, I'll find out what it was.

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.

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.

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... ;)

Me too............................>>> :D

Mines got a black roof

mines black too :wack:

ive never been a fan, nor of black bonnets even though ive got both lol!!

I did mine to both my red 300 and Shels yellow 300 to give it a glass top look

nar not a fan, only car i've seen which it looks good on is ChrisC's

mine was already done when i bought it, simple mod and it makes a load of difference to the look of the car

 

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.

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.

this is what it looks like with a different color nose cone

 

mmm.... you could get away with it either way then. well in my opinion.

mmm

 

looks good on white, not sure about red, will have to have a look at yours this weekend Chris

people with full resprays who have had this done what did you do with the inside of the door shuts and when you remove the t tops that part of the body work?

mine is getting done soon as well, looks really nice i think
