Fibreglass roof collected yesterday from LWS Designs. A top couple of chaps making very good products. The roof is work of fibreglass art and not your usual ton of matting with gaps you could drive a bus through etc.
Anyhoo, here it is placed on the car un-trimmed:

It's a bout 1.5mm thick as can be seen here:

The underside shows how it's made from a big sheet of glassfibre weave so even the inside has a nice uniform finish to it:

The back end (it needed pulling back a bit, it does actually fit perfectly) and the quality of the gel coat finish:

Got trimming and tried a short section of the gutter trim back on to make sure it would fit without me having to take more eof the roof back. It does fit. Result:

Front corner (Trim not actually put in properly, just draped):

All trimmed up and ready to be bonded on:

I just need to prep the shell and buy the sealant and we're good to go!
