Default Pics of JSB with Black Halo?

Thinking of painting my 08 JSB halo black, but would like to see how it turned out for others. Anyone got any pictures of their JSB with black halo I could see?

Thinking about painting the halo black on my AW vette, would love to see how the black halos look on other colors as well.

I hope you have the glass top. I don't think it would work with the solid top.

Don't have a glass top. I was thinking of painting the top also. Is that what you were talking about?

Just buy a used halo , then paint it. Save your jsb in case you want to change back.

Man, I can't decide if I LOVE that,...........or it looks like a bad hair piece with too much black dye in it (we've all seen those, you know?).

The side to side "hoop" behind the occupants' heads. The back of the targa top hooks into it while the front hooks into the windshield header.

Here's a pic of my 2009 JSB coupe with black halo, clear top and 35% tint on sides and rear.
I'm not a pro-photographer, so the picture is by far not as nice as the one posted above, but you get the idea how it looks on a coupe...

Thank you! I think it makes it stand out in the crowd without being over-done...

That's what I did: ordered the car with the clear top, and bought a spare halo at Carlisle for $100 to save my original one in case I ever got tired of this look (which I don't think will ever happen )
