carbon roof looks stunning dude :drool:

am i right in thinking you have to have a full cage to pull that off though? otherwise it would lose it's ridigity(sp?) and just crack the roof...???

You won't lose any rigidity taking the skin off. If you want to see exactly what a skin is (it ain't much believe me!), remove one from a scrap car, no rigidity is lost! I'd rather stick to having one on a caged car though for other reasons, although I'm sure it's just undue worries.

 

Next update will be about work on the engine bay. Plenty to do there, but haven't had the time to spare over the past 2 weeks. Will squeeze some in this week though!

 

:cheers:

It's been progressing, I do have a few newer photos to upload when I get round to it, but progress has slowed down recently as my mum has been very ill, and she sadly passed away yesterday, so been a little pre-occupied with that just lately :(

 

Progress will speed back up again in the new year
