Another squeak quelled.....

Sunroof Owners only. CF Roofers stop reading this. Now..

LOL

Had annoying squeak for the past, I don't know, year? Finally took the time to look and realized it was just the stupid seal was dirty around the sun roof. Cleaned it and applied silicone spray. Now quiet again. It's usually something I routinely do on the doors....clean the gaskets and lubricate, but the sunroof was left without love.

You got a sunroof instead of a beautiful carbon fiber roof

I'd normally agree with you here except I didn't have a choice in mine unfortunately. Maybe next one I can have built.

LOL.....I do like the look of the CF.....but I do like my sun roof.

Considering a convertible next.......who makes a carbon fiber roof convertible? I think its an option on the 911 convertible.

Yup. They're both not technically convertibles but have removable CF tops.

ya, but I was joking when I said I wanted a carbon fiber convertible. LOL. But I guess the hard top convertibles could be converted to CF? No? Some of the hard top convertibles (metal panels) look ok, some not so much.

Considering a Cayman but realized Porsche does not offer a sunroof, so NO! And the Boxter (convertible version of Cayman - ya I know its the other way around), the Boxter is, meh, UGLY. LOL.

Agree never been a fan of boxter or cayman for that manner. GT4 is acceptable. GT3 is about the extent of my Porsche interest.
