I've seen another CF roof install with a pretty common brand. The CF roof was useless the way it came, it had to go to the body shop and have several layers of clearcoat added.
This roof is more expensive for sure, but you get something in exchange for your money. I only plan on doing the roof once and expect not only OEM fit and finish and visual quality, but also for it to stand the test of time the same way the OEM CF roof holds up. That's what I'm paying for. This isn't a show car that sits at home, it gets regular use and things like the CF roof yellowing or chipping are unacceptable.

I was also on the fence for years because I didn't want to put a piece of garbage on my roof. Finally this is the right product.

It took 3.5 weeks to show up at my house from Russia. I'm on the East Coast
