Dirty D - 73 Duster Street/Strip Build
Time to fix the roof/pillars.
I weighed the options on what to do with the roof for a long time. Re-cover with vinyl, paint red, paint black, etc. I finally decided to paint the roof black. A couple hundred $ in materials and a ton of labor hours, would be cheaper than a vinyl recover or painting the roof red and trying to eliminate the bikini trim all together. Plus it would be easier to maintain and hopefully last longer than a vinyl replacement.
I once owned a 2011 Charger R/T and loved the black color so much I decided to use it for the roof. It's a metallic and really pops in the sun. In the shade it looks solid black.
So after lots of sanding, filler, epoxy priming, color, clear, sanding and polishing it came out really good. Not perfect, but I'm not a professional either. A ton of labor, but worth not paying someone else to do it.
