the only thing i would have with that is would anyone be able to tell. and another thing i got the price from the overlay from this guy
Product prices!!!
i have asked numerous times and have waited 3 months for a good pic of the roof on the Z but i have gotten nothing so far.

Yeah Spawn Aero = bad, he is gone from the board.
Not sure if anyone else is going to do a proper wrap setup for the roof, but if the carbon fiber is done properly no one will ever know.

lol Spawn...you never got pictures because it never existed in the first place. So...right now, I'm guessing you're aiming for all of the Seibon stuff.

FYI, Sunline Racing has a CF overlay. Sunline Racing - Carbon Roof Cover

I'd wait a bit...$900 is a bit much to stomach for an overlay. I'm sure that more overlays are coming soon.

I cant believe it would cost 7,000+ for a roof in carbon. Zele needs to be shot for even considering such a price. For Gods sakes its a Nissan!
Oh yeah stay away from spawn!

BTW 1.5k-2.5k is not lowballing... its double or triple the price of an overlay. Paying 7k for a product that honestly only costs less than a grand to make is ridiculous! CF is not that expensive and I know how the industry works you can buy a certain set of recaro seats for our cars for 3k for the set and that exact same set of seats for the GTR cost 10k...

now 1.5-2.5k is a fair price in my opinion. and like I said its easier to go up than it is to negotiate down.
