Also a Tip for anyone masking of brake lines or anything else odd shaped, aluminum foil works great. just make sure it's overlapped well.

Yeah his is a 7th Gen.

I don't think the black roof would look that great TBO. I think black accents would look good (like the black roof rails) but a full black roof I don't know about.

I agree with Mike, I wouldn't paint the roof black.

I don't see why roof rails wouldn't fit on the 7th Gens, but I have never seen it done either.
