I'm sick and tired of the CRX Si sunroof. Mine was shit so I removed it and lo and behold found rust galore, though electronically is still functional (well, not anymore cuz I removed part of the sliders). I've been through 3 plexiglass roofs only to have them crack at the bolt seems. They never really line up with the shape of the roof line either. I came out to my car after work yesterday to sit in a nice squishy wet seat and thus wet ass. It really is a shame that the Si hatch sunroof won't line up with the design of the CRX Si roof hole (crx roof slanted). At this point, I'm considering welding the original roof piece that I kept permanently in place and fiberglassing the rust holes in it as I should have done originally.

A "working" carbon fiber sunroof defeats the purpose behind the idea. When I had my 89' hatch, the guy who makes the CF plugs used my car for the template. He is local here in Salt Lake. The quality, and material provided is top notch. However, I removed all the componants of my sunroof, sliders, etc.

I also found something intresting u guys might have know but i didnt they make carbon fiber brake pads what the hell is that shit..

haha... they use carbon fiber brake pads in nascar and F1 cars. THey are supposed to have the best grip and last an extremely long time. Extremely expensive from what I understand. I have been wondering if they made any for regular auto applications.

I have a good question? (not trying to steal the thread or anything) I've seen a few crx si's running with a painted top on the sunroof while others are just glass. Was that an option or is it rare to see them like that.
