      Roof Colour

      So I have a whole bunch of ideas in my head of things I'd like to do to the Aveo. One is the possibility of changing the colour of the roof. I have the back windows blacked out, so I've been thinking of doing the same to the roof in either gloss of matte/satin black. Any thoughts?

      I vote for flat black. But do a photochop from the rearview.

      Yea, I doubt even spaypaint could further reduce the resale value of the Aveo. But I'd hit up a paint/body shop or a vinyl wrap place.

      On a side note, the Aveo has gloss black wheels during the summer, so theres a theme going.

      gloss black looks better 99% of the time, because it blends with the glass more..


      the only think i can think might be hard decision is the hatch, plan on painting it too?

      Go gloss black, It'll look like the full panaramic roof like the TC's.
