Message	Just finished up mounting my carbon fiber T-Tops. these are mounted on a set of scrap T-Tops for fitment checks. No fiberglass filler or mat and one layer of carbon BS, these have 4 layers of aerospace carbon cloth with a specialized core material to complete the lamination. UV stable resin was used, with vacuum infusion. the hardest part with this project was finding the correct type of rubber seals.... looking for a gage of interest on these, will be selling around $550 for the pair. Literally takes about 10 minutes to install. my electronic scales go to 13 lbs, OEM T-Tops were off the chart, resulting in a unmeasurable weight. Carbon versions came in at 6lbs. Different weaves and colors are available at buyers request. Little dirty with all my finger prints :/ WOW, you have a twin turbo! "Nah its a single".......oh....... "Its all good times until the single snail wants to join in" "If you want to go BIG, go single"
