black or black chequred roof to go with black 6n2 mirrors?

hi all
i have a dragon green 6n that is showing signs of a crap blow in on the roof, the laquer is starting to fade away around the ariel :(
i fancy the black and green look so am intending on getting some 6n2 door mirrors in black and then either having the roof re-spayed black or having the roof chequred in just black alongside the green
what do you all recon?? any ideas price wise to have the roof chequred?

thanks
george

£20 worth of rattle cans and masking tape

dont do chequered i think they look pants chequered roofs. If your gonna do anything either do it gloss black or why not have the laquer rubbed back and just have it relaquered if thats the only problem?

hmm im not sure what to do really, if i had the laquer off id be tempted to have the roof re-spayed black as with a set of black and polished pepperpots ive got coming i think it woulds suit the car, still not sure what id think of the black roof if i had it done? anyone had their roof spayed black?

thanks
george

this seems to be getting more and more popular now i have seen qiute a few yellow seats & vw's with gloss black roofs , it just remonds me of a newmarket taxi

I hope youve got a really pin straight roof mate, cuz if not and you paint it black itll show every little dent and ripple.
