CF sunroof panels? wtf? Who wants a big black patch on their roof that makes the car how much lighter? Maybe a pound or two?

Still, 5 pounds at most for for what, $400+? Not worth it. Go with lexan.

you're supposed to paint over CF...i dont know why people like leaving it exposed...especially on their hoods.

Anyhow, this is a great thing to do if they serve as a replacement for the extremely rust prone steel sunroof panel.

How much? and do they show the bolts on top as the lexan roof? I have been looking for something like this, except I want a perfect OEM fit on the inside as well as the outside. Unfortunately this is not the case on the lexan roof, as the bolts are visible from the outside.

I wouldn't pay more than 100 bucks for a CF sunroof cover. I'd also paint it so I don't look like a ricer. But they are making lexan ones now so
