Heard today mine's needing minor refinishing before being shipped. Was unsure if I would install it myself or have it done at a shop.

Very much looking forward to updates on your build thread sir.

Gearbangin, will you be installing this with a non-sunroof headliner?

Reusing the stock headliner since I already had it wrapped in alcantera last winter. I 'l just have the slider portion attached to stay closed.

As much as I'd love to do this to my ISF, with the mountain of money I've been putting into my truck lately I can't justify it. IOT save weight, at some point I'll likely remove the sunroof and all components and have a piece of aluminum sheet cut and glued in place there...and then maybe put some 3M CF wrap on top for looks lol. That should net some good weight savings on the cheap.
