    Default SO, my 4-doe needs a ROOF...

    lol literally, im gonna hafta go back to a junkyard and bring a generator and electric cutting wheel with me and cut the welds off of another 4-door teg, then do the same to mine.. and weld it back in...


    My only issue with it is, who in the world would i ask to get pricing on that? The junkyard doesnt just randomly have "roof cut" on the price list of parts...

    Cuz the people that had the car before me, chopped and screwed with my roof and its frame... installed a ghetto-bootleg sunroof in it that actually didnt look too bad...I even thought it was real for the first few months that i owned the car, until i tried fiddling with it, trying to get it to open and finding that it wouldnt open.. so i figured, why not replace it and i ended up trying to put a replacement in from the junkyard and found out that my car doesnt have the holes to bolt it to. LONG STORY SHORT, i ended up having the roof frame custom re-built by a welder, and putting a piece of sheetmetal over the hole where the "sunroof" previously was, and bondo-ing and smoothing it out as good as i could. It looks OK from a distance, but when you get up on it, you can definately tell something's not right, and i said to myself im not even gonna try getting my car painted until i actually go ahead and FIX the roof the right way so it'll be all smooth and secksy when all is said and done and i wont have to paint the car once, replace the roof, and then paint it again. :idb:



    And, i went to the junkyard today, they quoted me $58.00 for a sheetmetal roof cut for my car

    you do realize that cutting your cars ROOF off is going to seriously fuck the frame up unless you have it re-enforced before you start hacking, right?

    its a DA. get a new shell if you're THAT concerned with it. it's more trouble than its worth -- not to mention NOT SAFE.
