yes. forgot to mention its for GEN2 crx's . specifically a 91 in my case. i paid 312 dollars and some cents forgot exact to have a glass replica made at a glass place in my town. temperd glass? or something rather. i forget. the guy explained it to me. he said its the same glass as most vehicles use for sunroofs. too bad i wasnt payin attention. i was more paying attention to the large price tag. but it was custom so i prepaid it. no backing out .

glass top means cutting into your solid skeleton making it weaker.

also means needed reinforcement for your frame so you wont kill yourself making a sharp turn with your pretty glass roof crushing like a soda can.

but i guess if you dont drive your car and you put about 5 miles a year on it, it wouldnt be too bad to have.
