Carbon Roof
« on: November 06, 2011, 10:14:25 pm »
Hi
I had a carbon roof on order from performace-trim however they have gone bust so I was wondering if there are any other companies that sell? Also does anyone know whats happend with all the moulds from performance-trim has another company taken them over?

There was a guide on performance trim website not that big a job for a half decent body shop, would bloody love one.

Am I being thick here?  Is this a complete replacement roof, in other words they cut yours off and replace it with a carbon one, or is it a cover of some kind?
