I want to remove the sunroof cause it will never really get used.At the moment with heavy rain there is a slight leak, not removed lining yet to check where its coming from but the outside gasket looks pretty knackered. Found 1 company that do a blanking panel but pretty expensive? Any other alternatives ir recomendations. ________________________________________ V6 Power!Faster I can go the better!

I will get some pictures during the week as the shell is not at my house any more, it's just a carbon insert that you have to bond in |

You won't get downforce on the roof, and the tin holds up fine without wobbling and it's flimsy as hell if you push on it, so a bit of well stuck carbon will be fine.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

You get more of an issue from driving with the window down as it creates high pressure in the cabin, so make sure all surfaces are dry, clean and degreaser before you try and bond in the carbon panel. I think a few people have had Perspex windows blow out at the back due to air pressure.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

As above, you will have no issue with the panel coming out, getting it out is going to be a mission as it is lolSorry I didn't get more pics but iv been really busy and unfortunately I'm away with work for 3 months in 5 days time so I'm afraid I won't be able to sort this out until September if your still interested |
