CF Roof

I need to replace my roof on my 05 ES and I was wondering if anyone knows anyone that makes or will custom make a carbon fiber roof for me. I just need the part and I will have it installed at a body shop. Any help is greatly appreciated!Thkx

removing the rear and front windows would be the hardest.

haha, i thought it was a reasonable price
if a roof is damaged, the price for replacing it is going to be high regardless
and he's getting a carbon fiber one

ps he said 2000 not 3000
not everyone wants a new car
