I know what you mean! What was up with the 1990's styling... targa-top lookalike paint schemes and all... Anyhow... Car looks amazing with the volks!

I'm with Bridgewater... there's something about that car the screems "paint me!" I can't quite put my finger on it, but I think it's because the roof is a different color than the body :wink:. If you don't want to paint the roof then AT LEAST have the decency to paint the body black :biggrin: :biggrin:.

Actually I'm just playing with you, I was considering painting the roof of my all red black for a while.

Your car looks beautiful.

It depends on why it was done. Our 2004 with the crappy paint match done by the dealer to fix the wreck they caused, sure - I'd personally knock $10k off the value because of it.

On the other hand, our new 2005 goes under the [expert] knife at Vince's Auto Body Works within a few weeks of arrival for the NSX-R appearance mods (side-markers, shave the USDM reflectors, paint the roof, headlights, hood and spoiler). While that may diminish the value in some "purists" eyes, I believe if and when we sell it, it'll be to someone who understands and appreciates the goals behind the paintwork and respects the attention to detail we put into the car and quality of the work.

haha... I like 'Ojas' "keepin it real" pic. And another vote on keeping the black roof, looks hot! :smile:
 
Keep it black!
Honda did it for a reason.
(Draws attention to the long rear section.)
The only reason they went to solid colors is when the T top came out,
(It looked cheesy in 2 tone with the top off)
Just my 2................
