I was just wanting to no how to go about fitting these seriously sexy carbon fibre roofs?

I was planning on cutting the roof out then leaving about two inches all around the roof just up from the gutter to bond the roof on.

What does everyone think?Has anyone tried doing this?this is for my z cars project.


many thanks

Phil

yeah, leave 2" all around, then bond it on.

you will need to use a 6 point roll cage or similar if you do this though

[Bungle]

if its a z cars project it will have a full cage/frame inside

[philly c]

Is there any particular glue which would be better than others?

Yeah the z cars kit comes with a full roll cage:)

iv been advised to use sikaflex to seal the cf roof down....

[Bungle]

on a other topic about this tiger seal was used

[panelbeaterpeter]

You want to use tigerseal or sikaflex. They are whats used to fix in windscreens in modern cars, so would be more than good enough for a cf roofskin.
