Default Sunroof Delete Complete

I just had a sunroof delete done to my 2007 GT3.

The OEM part numbers are

997-503-501-00-GRV Roof Panel
997-555-091-02-A14 Head Liner
997-556-647-00 Foam
996-555-557-11-A03 Dome Light

The most expensive part is the Head Liner, and I picked one up from a 996GT3 and it is a perfect match (with a different part number). I have a lot of pictures of the work in progress, and will try and post later.

Sorry about the crappy photo, it was taken from 15 feet away, through a tinted office window.

Not for me, the shop that did they work did a really good job. Thanks for the extra motivation to get this one done.

Cup Cars are only sold as a tub, this was an GT3RS part (at least in NA)

I did get a really nice Custom equal length header (no Cat) added at the same time. It will be dyno'd in the near future when the custom software is being written.

The big wing is down the road, track season is here for us northern people, and I just want to drive it and wear out tires and brakes.

Nice... this is on my list of to-do's!

You had Blitzkrieg do the roof install right? Where did you go for finishing?

Yes, Blitzkreig did the work, he also sent the painting out to a guy he knows.

I am blown away with the sound the catless headers make, mine is the prototype, he will be making more very soon.

Congrats.
Looks OEM and it doesn't get better than that.
How much weight did you save?
The weight up top ... best one to lose.
