Tom- I'm currently getting a fibreglass one off bung made for my sunroof by Fiberworx

Have just dropped a sunroof & roof section down to them so they can make a decent mould. Might be another option? Once they have perfected the fit they should be available to the masses.

There will likely be an option to have it done in C/F too at extra cost

In fairness I had no idea the sunroof skin was removable from the mechanism. Looks very reasonable as/is!

Thanks Chris. Decided to leave as is at the moment as trying to keep costs down.

Fitted the Rota Slips today as they give a wider track than the 'teg wheels :D

Taxed the car & took it for a blast - It felt so fast when it was in vtec in
3rd gear that I shouted out loud to myself 'f..king hell!' :lol:

Nothing like being ready ahead of schedule 8-) . Usually I'm the day before, if not that morning :lol:

Will this be the first time out on the Yokohamas?

Haha! Actually still want to take off power-steering but it will have to wait.

Yep, 1st time on A048's in Prelude but I've driven an Elise with them & they felt
great :D

This might sound mad but I'm going to try with A048's on the front & Prada spec 2's
on the rear. Hoping it will give better turn-in, but if it's REALLY oversteery then I've
got some spare wheels with R888's to swop with.
