HI,Why would you have to paint the roof also?There are many cars out there that the hood is just painted or swapped out to carbon fiber,Porsche has that look on some new GT cars..Good Luck..

Sorry, I no longer have it but it was similar to this:

add Turbo in the side stripe and about an inch wide or so stripe around the center grille opening. I actually used a brighter orange with a bit more red, but you'll get the idea.

Stripes and numbers
Here are a few shots of my 03 996TT with and without race numbers.

Sorry it's dirty. It's mid-winter here in upstate NY.

My car is seal grey and I am looking to change the appearance as well. I am seriously considering wrapping the hood,roof, spoiler, side vents, & mirrors in matte black.

I am definitely thinking about it. Tired of the same look. Just worried it will be too over the top.

I think it will look great, I would like to do Guards Red, but that might be too much so I will stay with black as well, will you be doing the decals or paint?
