Default New lip and sunroof

Got rid of Veilside Lip after all the problems and went with the RS style lip, also added Webasto sunroof. I like this lips more aggressive look and the roof is awesome, no wind noise at all.

Cracking in the corners, bought 2 lips and they both cracked, Veilside refused to help out so I decided to wipe my hands of them. There was a big thread about them cracking 2 months ago and this obviously was a on going problem.

No way on the self install, had Richie's Auto Restyling install, $699 installed. All the controls are built into the sunroof so there are no un-necessary switches to mount or stick out.

I love the sunroof, I was thinking about adding the same myself. I am interested to know how much you paid for the installation? Also, did you buy the sunroof from the person who installed it or did you buy it seperate and then have it installed? Looks great!

Actually Richie's Auto Restyling sponsors my car and they did the install, they do mostly roofs, leather, tv/dvd players, grilles etc. He charges $699 installed. If you have a reputable sunroof company in your area, ask them if they carry Webasto sunroofs, this is what I have and have been told they are the only company that makes one for the 350Z. Good Luck

Thanks for compliment. The Leather was also installed by Richie's Auto Restyling, he sells both Katskins and Classic Softrim Leather kits and the Classic Softrim was what I went with, the leather seemed to be of a better grade IMO. The 2 tone leather with the embroidered headrest was $799 installed and solid colors run $699 installed.
