thanks guys 
you wouldnt believe how much of a worry it was getting this done as a PS can neevr really reflect how it will look in real life so i just went for it and was soo worried picking it up and at fist i was not sure bout it but it grew on me over the day and i think it looks the business 
as far as getting the tailgate and spoiler done, i dont like it like that i prefer it just to be the actual roof and everyone does the spoiler and tailgate bit 
and for the wheels kingdom i know they need doing but i keep putting them off as when i do the wheels it creates about five other jobs (painting the calipers, fitting new wheel arch liners, running cold air feed to wheel arch lining and fitting new fogs that are gloss black instead of matt) aswell as the fact these are gonna be my winter wheels so not overly bothered bout how they look for now, hopefully will have the ones i want for next summer

I personally don't see why you did just the roof white.
At least do white pillars (like on a DS3) to make it look part of the car, rather than an individuality statement.
It looks incomplete, like a half-hearted effort. Nothing else on the outside is white.
It looks like you did it to co-ordinate with your neighbour's house/fence 
nothing personal, it's not my idea of 'style'

the style is when you pop the bonnet and it matches my engine cover that is half black and half white aswell as my strut brace which is white
and i prefer it to be a statement of individuality than copy another car
EDIT: The brake calipers are going to be going white to match it aswell

I like it, it's like a mirror'd effect of my roof lols!
I also agree, DONT do the spoiler and the top of the tailgate, that's just epic failness waiting to happen right there, the roof ONLY is to be done
Good effort, it's nice to see something different!

the roof liner was done using some rust oleum direct to vinyl paint from b and q
you have to take the lining out to do it though but its not a hard job
takes about 3 cans and total cost about £20 and an hour or so of your time, the white roof grew on me i must admit as the first moment i got it i looked at it and thought s**t what have i done then the more i look at it im like hmmm its pretty nice actually
and the pics dont do it justice really as its pearlescent white too
