How much does it cost(estimated) to paint the roof back to black, I personally like the off color look. There are a couple of NSX that I like but they had the Roof painted to match the car. also what is the paint code Honda/Acura uses on the roof?
a bumper is around 4-500, assuming the roof take less work then the bumper!
3-400 sounds reasonable, but then again, u could have a $10000+ paint job from some high end car company!
I did a dummy estimate when I was about to buy a car with a black roof, and I wanted to color match it. Going by $44 an hour for labor, I ended up with around $800 to paint the roof.
The entire roof assy must be dissasembled to paint it properly. This involves removing the windshield as well and when it's removed I don't believe it can be replaced with the original and a new one must be installed. Once the seals are broken they cannot be reinstalled.
I may be wrong about this but this is what I was told by my body shop and by the windshield glass technician. If this correct the cost of a new windshield must be factored into the equation.
man serious about the windshield. I plan on buying an off colored roof anyway, but just seeing how much extra to get one painted back...opens up more options. I would want it done right though, not cheaply done.

Nope! I do believe there were a couple (I think 4) of NSX coupes (non T NA2s) floating around. I remember seeing a 2000 or 2001 factory red coupe for sale a while back. They were asking a pretty premium for it. Aslo, from Prime Classifieds. A 2000 Silver Coupe

I was about to say I thought in 04 they started offering the matched roofs, but some people have painted theirs to match, I would probably want to paint it back...whats the paint code(Same as the Berlina Black??)

Actually in 1994 only later Brooklands Green Pearl NSXs had a color-matched roof. All other colors had a black roof. 1995 was really the first year of the color-matched roof for all NSXs.

Yup this coupe had a "blackroof". Standard for all coupes & Type R's, are black roof, optional is matching colored roof. Black coupes from 90-05 and 94 Brooklands are the only cars with matching roof less Zinardi-S-Zero and T's unless special ordered or someone painted ithe roof aftermarket.
Only coupes were able to be ordered with a black roof from 1997-2001. There is no NSX-T with a black roof from the factory. You must have a coupe Imola Orange or if it's a T the roof was painted black.
There is no reason or advantage to removing the windshield when painting a NSX roof.
Windshields, rear windows and side windows on other cars can and often are removed and re-installed without breaking them but there is always a risk with this procedure. I'd hazard a 1 in 10 risk of breakage?
