I dont know about you guys but the glass sunroof makes the FC look awesome. I dont know it is like it should been like that standard. That is why people who have them will not let them go.

Hey 13b4me - just wondering if you had the chance to ship the glass roof for my FC. This is going to look so good on my project car I'm excited. The carb and ignition is about complete so I am nearing the point where I can test ride it. As soon as you can ship the roof I would appreciate it. It's still a little cold up here to be riding around without a roof.
As for the side windows and rear deck, there might be an interest. I need to see how the bronze tint looks from the outside to determine if it will work with the car. How much do you want for the side windows, back window, combined group? As soon as I get the roof and see what the tint looks like from the outside I will make my decesion. Let me know.

i never seen a glass sunroof in person, but whats wrong with a stock sunroof?
to me spending 300+ $$ US to make something different but not better is money that is wasted. Cause really, what does it do?

its different and you most likely dont have to deal with the most hated RUST issues!!! unless the black painted edges rust but thats unlikely. IT LOOKS PIMP and if you dont want vibrations at speed close the damn top! wait a minute....why would it vibrate more than a metal roof? WEIGHT?

The vibrations I was referring to can best be compared to the dreaded hatch rattle that so many FC owners complain about...something to do with the glass?
