EvoX CF Roof Overlay ?

Hey,

I was told today by my local shop that a company made a carbon fiber roof overlay for the EvoX, can anyone help me find this?

I was going to have the shop just lay carbon over my factory roof, but if there is already an overlay this would save me alot of money and would be removeable. Thanks in advance for anyones help.

Ahhh, I get it. Thanks Olaboy for the link, I was able to figure it out.


The roof cap is made by a company called Mastergrade. Here's the pictures i found on the "other" site, but I wasn't able to find the product on Mastergrade's Website (www.MastergradeMotorsport.com). Maybe I'll try e-mailing them for pricing...






Thanks for the help guys.

Huh? I don't get it. I think adding the roof cap defect the purpose of weight reduction from carbon fibers. I assume it's all for show, besides, who's gonna know, right?. Weight addition and not weight reduction. lol! Would have been better if the roof cap has VGs on it already. Looks cool tho!

Sorry dude, but I think it was in Evom once, and was closed due to some craziness.... Anyhow, didn't want to recreate that scene! haha. But yeah, its just a cover, which IMO, causes some undue bulkiness to the line of the roof.... Plus, if you really just want the CF look, go for the vinyl. It'll be waaaaay cheaper!

I really don't see a point in adding stuff like this to an already heavy car.

That is absolutely hideous. Doesn't even serve the carbon fiber purpose of reducing weight!

Of course the hideous wing, canards and stickers match. This is what makes people call Evo's ricers.

but last i hear mastergrade loves to shaft and ruin their test vehicles borrowed from other owners. for that reason i will never buy from them.

That's why I didn't want to outright say who made it at first. lol, I knew the bad rep that was floating around with these guys. Let's just say the owner of this X realizes what's happening to his X while being the test mule for their parts......
