it doesn't apply because you don't have a sunroof. its just a cover so if you every roll your car, your screwed!!!!!

if you roll our cars, you are screwed anyway, what does having the panel made out of CF have anything to do with it?

well, that and since the CF roof cap will be constantly beat on by the sun, causing it to fade or yellow. i dont see spending the money on it. i would rather paint the sunroof black, and its cheaper.

Innovative Fabrications Inc. makes the entire roof in carbon. This won't yellow in the sun either.

CRX's dont have glass sunroofs. so for our crx's it would be a cap.

This will bolt in instead of your rusted steel cover and will open like it should so its not a cap sorry for the error in the title.. But i know there was some one asking about one of these and now one know what the was talking about where it it is..

crx si-r it doesn't apply because you don't have a sunroof. its just a cover so if you every roll your car, your screwed!!!!!

It is a damn sun roof replacement! not roof cap!
sunroof = just the sun roof assembly (that one on ebay is a replacement! meaning you remove the old one, bolt up the new one)
roof cap = the whole damn roof itself!

It's good to get if you have an Si. Because the sunroof is one of the parts that rust easy on the Si's.


Good price thorw.

Yeah and also you can this paint over the carbon fiber to make it look OEM but not have the rust problem like the OEM metal one.

So just because they offered optional glass tops means he must want a glass top because of his name?
