    Hi folks, I need to tap the collective conciousness of the experts out there. I've heard about Carbon fibre roofs / spoilers for the 3x8 series. Rumour has it that they give a little extra headroom. A Ferrarichat sponser offers 3x8 roofs in both Carbon Fibre and Carbon Kevlar. (Powerspeed is the sponser). So a couple of questions if i may:
    Headroom increase true?
    Any dealings with this vendor? (good/bad?)
    Any decent photos of CF and CK and the differences? (the pics on the sponser's site are so small, hard to get details).
    And finally, if I don't like the CF 'pattern' is it possible to paint over it?
    My 328 is black, so the CF should look pretty cool, but need a good pic (on a black 3x8 would be nice) to be sure...
    I've done some searches in the forums, but info seems a bit scattered and was hoping for a consolidated thread.
    Thanks in advance!

    All I know is that you can paint over the cabon fiber....A couple car club guys have done it, although not 3x8's

    I have a MACarbon Roof and spoiler on a Grigio 328. Looks great, more headroom- although it takes up more space behind the seats. Definitely an improvement on a Grigio car- I think on a Black car it would look equally fine.

    Cheers,
    dce

    okay, so vendor feedback anyone? or maybe I should post this to the general forum to see if anyone has delt with Powerspeed... ?
