FYI: I linked a post for an Asuka roof and this is what the OP stated:
Overall fitment for the Asuka CF roof in a B+ as well. It could be a little longer in the back but.. all and all good.
Asuka does not replicate but yet was still short and fitment was a B+.
Number 1 rule of CF parts is this:
Nothing is OEM but OEM and all CF needs to be customized for the best fit.

You must not have looked at my prior post but the Asuka was a B+ and was short soooo... It look like I run this risk with all vendors. Concidering it did not come with tape it is eather used MG or another brand. Off hand who makes a replica roof cap? I can only think of Asuka and MG...

I'm simply saying, I don't know how well the tape will apply to a different companies roof. If their roof cap doesn't fit as well then the double sided tape might not be strong enough and may be the reason they didn't supply the tape.

Epoxy keeps roofs from flying off at 160.
yup.. thats one of my hero's.. that dude was dipping into the stank till the day he died.
I was the OP that was quoted. Even the ASUKA rook was not perfect. From what I understand, ASUKA did remedy the short'ness' in their plain roof cap.

for everyones info. I've seen 3 people with the mastergrade roof overlay and I've personally owned 2 myself and all of them fit a little short at the back. the only roof overlay i've seen that covered the entire roof completely is my friends asuka double hump roof overlay.
btw op looks like you've become addicted to carbon fiber. i was bit by that bug as well but like all addictions it drained my wallet and i had to stop. lol. good luck the cars looking nice.
