Leg Motor Sport CF Roof!

Well I think it is from them because it is on their site. No idea if it is an overlay or replacement.

WTF Ive been looking for this for years,,,,,
I have no concern for how much this is I want and I will have it,,,,
We nee to find out if its really leg and if its a replacement panel or overlay....

From the looks of the spoiler and the updated interior center dash piece its definately an 09,,, good thing Mazda didnt change the roof too....

looks like winning blue to me, their site when translated states 03- se3p, also states 160k yen, so like 1650 usd or something.

Whats all this I have a sunroof, please be an overlay nonsenese....
1. that would just be rediculous....
2. the rubber seals on the border of the sunroof wouldnt allow the overlay to sit flush,,,

If it is a real roof and you pay someone to install it then it is going to be real expensive. There is a youtube video about the greek rx8 with a bunch of custom work. Part of the video shows them creating and installing their CF roof.
