I’m on fire! 🤣

I’d be surprised if those plates are anywhere close to $1000. I certainly wouldn’t even consider it worthwhile paying over $1k. I consider my pricing borderline not worth it and I’m around $750. But I’m curious to see where I’m at compared to them.

EDIT: Has them listed for $900. Not bad!

Kind of surprised when I see people selling roofs for $1800. The OE process is a 5 layer stack plus a core from what I can see. I know it’s 6 layers and the underside is a spread tow (expensive!). I could be wrong but the aftermarket is likely using a 2 layer with a thick core in between, maybe a cosmetic top layer. Nothing wrong with it except the materials to make the roof like that are less than $250. A 5 layer stack is triple that.

I learned something today…so I got $200 and some excellent data points. As far as I look at it…I got a great deal!
