I found on your site it says..

"The AMS Carbon Kevlar Roof Not Only weighs in 16 lbs less then the standard EVO Roof, but its just as strong."

By standard I'm guessing you are talking about a standard Evo 8 with the solid Roof, but what about the MR Edition with the Aluminum Roof. What's the weight difference there?

Looks good... I'm guessing you are going to make one for the white Evo X as well...

Eric - On the inside of the car, along the roofline sides there are brackets and such that attached to the sunroof. - I assume none of that is re-used. If so, I will drill out the welds and junk these brackets. Trying to reduce the weight, thats all.

Please let me know. Thanks!
