    Word is the roll bar needs to come out to get to the dents in the roof.

    Sent the album of pictures of the roll bar mounting to the body shop to assist them in the removal.

    That looks cheap, that'll probably set you back maybe twenty or thirty bucks...:wink:

    I replaced my roof, took the sunroof out altogether recently. That wasn't cheap, but it made a noticeable difference in headroom, and on the track. But it's not my daily driver.
