any mention of price?

56 lbs if you happen to have sunroof car. only 7lbs savings if you have alloy roof already. seems only plausible if you have sunroof roof to remove or if you happen to be repairing a damaged roof.

Can someone confirm that this is actually 56 lbs NET loss after installing the cf roof? Also- is there not a center support bar that goes across the top center of the car from side to side? When I installed a cf roof on my e46 m3 we had to put an oem support bar in there- evos don't have one?

I'm looking to install a cf roof in my evo, wondering if there are any alternatives to this ams piece.
