Carbon fiber roof!

tvfreakazoid

I'm really dont' know to much about carbon fiber other than being light in weight.

What did you mean by it won't last very long? Will the fibers start coming off?

Also what is the weight difference between the carbon and the aluminum roof?

My last question is, I talked about on this forum about carbon engine hoods. Someone said that sometimes companies don't use "100%" carbon fiber and it's a fiber glass hood with some carbon fiber sheet overlay or something to that nature.

also, not lasting long is just the way it could have been made.

not a big difference in weight from aluminum and CF...but there is a savings none the less.

i've heard of fiberglass with CF wrapped on it too.

This overlay barely weighs anything. I will measure the weight tomorrow.

But I don’t think I said it wont last long and if I did I apologize. I said it does not last for every just like anything else you put on a car. This should last as long as a paint job because its been proven that if you wash, polish, and wax this piece (because it is clear coated) along with the rest of your car it will last as long as you take care of it. If you never wash, wax, or polish your cars paint job itl only last a few years before it starts to noticeably fade. So if you take care of the part just like you normally would of your car. Itl last as long as you own it.

Not only that its covered with a life of your car warranty.
