Getting a gloss black roof on my wrx?

So my car is in the body shop getting a lot of work done and %80 of my car is getting painted. The roof also need to get painted.....the painter at the body shop told me that the roof would look great black. All the work is getting done free from insurance, so it is not gonna cost me anything. What do you guys think? I will have some photo shop up later to show you guys what it will look like.

the car is gonna not be a DD anymore, more of a track/show car!

this is how the car looks now, but with sti side skirts on.

No because someone hit it with a huge suv then ran after they hit her!!! $5,500 is damage. So it was a hit and run! but I am good friends with the guy that owns the body shop so I am getting some cool work done on her!

If you really want the black roof go for it. Why don't you have the shop lay some CF over it?
