240z Carbon Roof - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

recently had a customer who drags a 240z, the car had a webasto sunroof that was pi$$ poor in most conditions and wanted a carbon section making for it.

what we ended up doing was making a complete roof section in carboon and bonding it onto the roof.

check it out and let us know what you think.

I love it, Simon. Very nice, I know alot of style snobs (dons flamesuit as he carries on typing) are waffling on about bare carbon being "soooooo last year, dahling..." but I think a well made carbon panel is a beautiful thing

So, how much to do the same for my R32 bootlid?

you want a webasto sunroof in your bootlid?

how strange!?!?

because of the labour element in making it look good, it's probably not much cheaper than buying a full CF bootlid!

drop me a PM if you are interested.
