Thank you brother. I appreciate it.
Finally got the ceiling panel loaded up and delivered to the upholstery shop along with all of the trim pieces. Had them order 5 yards of Anthracite 9002 Alcantara. I didn't attempt to remove the B pillar cover as every video I pulled up they ended up breaking the clips. I do see now the correct way to do it but it requires removing or at least loosening the lower rear quarter panel interior trim. I didn't want it holding up the rest of the project and it looks like something I can do separately at a later date then just drop the B-pillar trim off to be reupholstered. One issue I ran into was that the owner of the shop said they can't reupholster the sun visors. Or they can but there's no way to hide the stitching to make it look good. I had to go back to the drawing board with that one as I can't have the stock sun visors sticking out like a sore thumb with a new Alcantara ceiling panel. ![]() Pretty cool seeing the exposed carbon roof from underneath ![]() ![]() To replace the sun visors I decided to go with this set from ColoradoN5x. $250 for the set and I think the M Stitching is a nice touch. Will see how they turn out and hope that the Alcantara is a match. ![]() ![]() Actually kind of excited to get this all back together I think it will change the look and feel of the interior quite a bit. Lastly, While the roll cage was apart I went ahead and got some clear 70% tint installed on the driver/passenger and rear quarter windows to combat some of the Florida summer heat.
