I spoke with John today from CarbonbyDesign and my roof is just about ready to ship out to me. He expects it to be shipped later today or tomorrow morning, so i should have it mid next week. So here's a little CF porn for you guyz. i hope you guyz like it and i can't frkn wait to have it on. also, i should have the RKSport sideskirts by 10-3, then it goes to paint. i'll also post pix of both, when done.
the weave is 6k thread, those who know, very hard to find. unfortunate for me, because all my cf parts are 6k. there is 3k, but the weave dosn't show enough.

OK, forgive me if this is a stupid question, but...

How does it install?

Does it get mounted onto the existing roof or are you cutting your roof off and putting this one in its place?

:confused::confused::confused:

Tom, thanks man! Your going dislike me more, when you see the RKSport sideskirt on as well. Not to mention a BUTT load of unique cf parts in the works.

Very nice. I know how long you have waited for this and it looks like patience and persistence is about to pay off. Congratulations on another one-of-a-kind mod. I look forward to seeing it on and will be listening for the "F-bombs" while you get it EXACTLY right.

-=FLEX=-

there is no such thing as a stupid question. the overlay was done on a factory roof, that i had to purchase. the cf is adhere'd to my stock roof. once i get the overlay, i will have to do some cutting, to make it fit perfectly. as you can see, there is an excess of cf around the edges.

reminder:
unfortunately there will be no group buy. as it turns out there are 6 different roofs for our chargers, for '06/'07, not sure about '08. once i get my roof, i'll see if it fits other chargers and let you guyz know if it fits. for now you'd have to order a factory roof and have cbd do an overlay. i will most likely post a step by step for the install. luckily i have saleensean helping me with the install.
the roof will run from $230 - $390. of course my roof is rare and cost the most.
let me not say that there will be no group buy. i'm sure you guyz can work it out with john, if you've got enough people to do it and it depends on your roof. also, if your willing to pay for a roof or share in the cost. plus the cf overlay price. talk with john.

update:

i spoke with john and my metal roof, dosn't have the hole for the sat antena. so it works out better for those with sunroofs and w/ or w/out sat antena. we just need someone to order a roof w/out the sunroof. maybe share in the cost. this way everyone can have a cf roof made. you'll just have to drill the hole for the antena, easy to do. i will do a step by step with pix on the install, for every to use. i plan on shipping my metal roof back to john for others to use.

no, it's not a vinyl roof, it's carbon fiber overlay. cf'n the center pc of my spoiler is possible. first, i want to see how the spoiler flows with the car, after i've added the the roof.

Now thats a nice roof Jimmy, and fits the perfect car... The curves on the front of the roof should help show the weeve great in the sun, unlike the flatter hood and trunk, so this could be your best piece of CF yet... Congrats bro... Cant wait to see it on the car...

Fahad, thanx bro! John said that this was the best cf part he's made so far. This sux, because I'm so impatient. Your right about seeing the roof a little better, I thought of that too.
