Default rusted sunroof?

my sunroof is rusted to hell, its cracked all over the place. i called autoway honda today and they wanted 198.00 just for the panel i was wondering if any of you guys possibly went to a metal shop and had them cut a piece of metal the exact dimensions as the sunroof and installed it? i looked on ebay but most ppl are selling the whole sunroof. my whole sunroof is in working condition only the panel is rusted straight through. thanks for the input.

Hell if your willing to pay $200 just for the sunroof panel, then you might want to look into Vision's carbon fiber panel.
