Awesome! I've always wondered how a sunroof that slides back like that would look!

OneRotor 10-25-06 02:06 PM

cool fab work. I don't like the way that sunroofs look, but you did a fine job mounting it

DriftFB 10-25-06 02:13 PM

that is a huge sunroof, if I was going to have a daily driver Rx I might look into something like that. Enjoy all the sun I guess.

Tranquil 10-25-06 02:15 PM

that's pretty badass!

excellent work!

MattG 10-25-06 03:28 PM

Looking good!

I like the way the guy keeps track of the days there in the shop lol!

John64 10-25-06 04:06 PM

I like the picture in the background! That means its a professional workshop!

trochoid 10-25-06 05:54 PM

Great fab work. My only dislike is I would like to see the sunroof lay flatter when fully open. I would guess that a 2nd gen sunroof might work better for the flat part, but they are all steel and a sunroof is just that. It lets the sun in, open or closed. Your's is a better choice.

Great to see the adaptive engineering from other models, and still stay in the Mazda family.

diabolical1 10-25-06 06:29 PM

great adaptation. can't wait to see this little beauty all gussied up with paint.

Naegleria_Fowleri 10-25-06 06:37 PM

Definitely wonderful work. And that poster in the background looks good as well.

But I am really impressed with your work on the sunroof. That is awesome.

Kim's FB 10-25-06 06:42 PM

Wow that's cool. Very original. I like it!

Jose Feliciano 10-25-06 07:48 PM

Nice Job Cant Wait To See It When It Is Painted And Done

-xlr8planet- 10-25-06 08:10 PM

Thanks for everything guys, but Im not the one doing the work. I just give this guy instructions of what I want and how, and he does it. This guy is amazing, he can turn a flat piece of steel into a body panel.

Have you guys seen the videos?

I cant decide between gunmetal or shiny black........... both would look awesome

openshot 10-25-06 08:51 PM

OnlyOnThurs 10-25-06 08:57 PM

OnlyOnThurs 10-25-06 09:00 PM

I still have to figure out if Im gonna use the switch and reading lights that came with the roof (and by the way, its the same one found on the FD) or if Im gonna use a custom thing
