AW e92 LCI with a couple new things

This SoCal heat wave we currently have is killing me, so I decided to tint the car this morning 35% all around, and added a ACS replica window spoiler.. very subtle addition.. next up ! Black Vinyl Roof.....

Oh and I apologize for the crappy ass picture, its from my dingleberry, i mean blackberry. Droid X Here I come!

Very nice AW e92, but I guess a black roof won't help keeping the heat out.

Temps were in the low 90s in Texas back in May........so ya it's pretty hot here in the south. Tint helps a great deal with keeping the interior cool and it's almost a necessity in places were it does get really hot in the summer months.

definitely vinyl. that was the first thing i thought of when i saw you were going to do the roof. if not the spoiler will be like a white stripe along the back of the roof.

Why would you put black vinyl on the roof?

No benefits actually, but IMO and many others it looks great. I don't know if you have seen alpine white 3-series or 5-series with black vinyl applied to the roof, its pretty sleek looking-and as opposed to painting it, it is not permanent and very easily reversible if I were to sell the vehicle.
