Default Sunroof......Gone!!!!

I bought the car for a steal because the dipshit previous owner had a sunroof installed. well after a hand full of parts and lots of time.....ITS GONE!!!!
before:


NOW:

I had that line made flush as well.



im doing it in black(obvioulsy) powder coating the centers of my torq thrusts black and adding black, black bird hood stripes. should look good. im just glad the STUPID sunroof is gone.

Nice! I remember posting in your thread on how to get rid of it, nice to see you finally did it! Every time I see when someone has done this to their F-Body I just shake my head.

Looks good. But did they seriously use duct tape to hold the windshield to the top of the roof?
