nope, the CF roof was not purchased from Mazdatrix.com . This was a custom job done by the guys at Auto Explosion

Looks great dude! Congrats on being the first to pull this off. Your shop did an excellent job. Have you thought of doing a clear bra on the CF to protect it from sun damage?

The roof has a really good clear coat on it to protect it from the elements and as Ngo mentioned, this car isn't exactly driven much ;)

Nopstnz8 05-31-2010 11:55 PM

^^Oh got ya. Then clear bra probably wouldn't be worth it anyways.

Thanks Bryan. Been busy with my newborn daughter (born 5/17) but once I get some time I'll have to show up at the LAX meet.

It's my birthday weekend so if I'm sober for any part of it, I'M IN!
I was planning on polishing my 8 this weekend so let me know and I'll plan accordingly.

Nice touch!
