Default sunroof help?

does anyone know of a web site, company, shop, or a place that makes replacement pieces to the sunroof like carbon fiber or plexy glass?

i gutted my car, i dropped my weight from 3100 down to 2800, still have more gutting to do, but if i can get the sunroof replaced, i can loose more weight, my goal is to get down 2400 or less.

someone help me please

did you weigh the car before you started? i thought they weighed about 2900 pounds, not 3100.

but yeah, i am curious about light weight replacement glass panals for the roof.

i know kaminari makes a cf roof, but the coolest thing about the tc is the moonroof, so i'd rather have light weight glass moon roof.

it isn't much lighter, it is just one big piece without hardware to open and close it.

i agree, the tC spec only has a gant glass piece but no hardware to open it.

what im really looking for is a plexy glass replacement, and yes if you do a CF swap it will save a lot of weight

yes i did weigh my car before and after, stock its as 3100lbs, even though the specs say 2900, thats prob the dry weight, but w/ a full tank a gas, and all fluids filled it weighs more.

now that its gutted i got to 2800, thats removing the side curtain SRS air bags, BOTH sides, i can post pics if any1 wants to c
