Can anyone help??

I have contacted Fiberworx who have said they can produce a 4g sunroof bung in GFRP (& possibly CF)- however they need a sunroof complete with the surrounding roof skin so they can produce a mould!

Their stuff looks good quality & could open up a source of decent sunroof plugs here in the UK- without having to pay through the nose for a kit from the states!

For reference their GFRP plugs for other Hondas are £95 with the CF plugs @ £200

Has anyone got a rotten 4g breaking with a sunroof who can chop the lot out before weighing the shell in?

Bit of a long shot perhaps, but could be a great opportunity!

If anyone can help then drop me a PM

i have my old sunroof & seal i have just swapped for a c/f one mate, but their reasonably heavy and wouldnt be cheap on postage - are you talking about sending it to you or Fiberworx?

He needs someone to hack up an old roof to give them the surrounding roof too!

Why do they need this exactly? Appreciate there is allowing for shrinkage but I don't see what that will gain them? Will a drawn outline of the hole help?

I'll hack mine off if I can get a grinder

I'd just cut the roof out of your breaker instead

Fiberworx need the sunroof itself plus the surrounding skin so they can make an accurate mould in GFRP & be able to test fit/adjust it to perfect the fit (so I'm told)

Yes- lets hope so!

As/when/if Fiberworx have a mould from a roof/surround then other owners will have a viable alternative to a CF plug kit from the states.

I don't mind doing the running about delivering parts etc so if I get some decent charity with a roof/surround then it could be a go-er!!
