Definitely do gloss black roof. I have CF roof and I don't think it looks as good as gloss black.

Mind getting a close up photo? That must have been tough to wrap the antenna.

Right now I have CF roof and white antenna. It stands out in a really bad way.

Wow, that fin is done very nicely!

I actually might just get CF fin cover from eBay and give that a shot. Seems like it would be less frustrating. Plasti dip is a good idea also!
