I want to see what it is like to run the smaller bar instead of the 26mm Eibach we have right now
Ill try and set up a trip then...maybe I can get some CF fenders for us while Im down there. And I might be down for the CF roof. A g is a good deal..

Unfortunately, he wants to do a run of at least 10 for it to be worth his time.

I saw one that he made for one of the race cars that he was building. It was an exact copy of the original roof. He said it would be dry carbon fiber and would need to be painted too. He does a lot of custom carbon fiber for the race cars that he builds.

He can build whatever you want if the price is right . He set up Kelli's suspension for her. Laser alignment and corner balance and it is handling great now.

If anyone wants it for the bling factor then fine, but always read the rules of racing of which class you will be racing in as replacing roof skins with non-factory material is for the most part not allowed in most classes of racing that I know of.
Buy the way, this will be a very hard piece to mold.

I had mine before SEMA too. It would look great if it wasn't all covered up with foam wrap. I guess it's time to send an e-mail to get this s*!+ done finally.
