AMS Carbon Fiber roof being installed
Most people have not really had a chance to see our CF roof up close and personal. Yesterday Ivan did an amazing job putting one on our customer Steve's Black Evo IX. I thought I would share these with you to really see how great this looks and how well it all fits.

Thanks to Arthur for taking the pics

You can view the weight saving and specifics on our site at

This should fit a regular lancer without a problem. This is riveted and sealed in place. the hardest part is taking out the front and rear glass to install it.

No wonder his car's taking so long.. He must have been waiting for the roof to arrive...

Looks good Steve

When the time comes I will also do it to mines!!! Very clean install too!
