Reliable fabrication/roof shop in NorCal
 
I need a very well reputed reliable fabrication shop to install a sunroof... Haven't completely made up my mind but please don't flame. Anyone know of one?

classic soft trim in hayward or coach automotive in union city. Both do a ton of dealership work. Both get top reviews. I'm going to check out soft trim for heated and ventilated seats. Other shops are usually hotrod oriented.

how do you get a sunroof to work with the lines of the roof?

EAGLE5 12-11-2014 05:10 AM

i havent seen a car with one. it would be a lot of work and will hurt the handling.

yeah ive seen ONE car with it. cant find the picture but it was a red gt86

and it was pretty sweet..

and i know leaky roofs are common with this, thats why i need a GOOD place. I'm not looking to save money for this project. I'll pay top $ if it means itll be done right honestly.

edit: found it, some random fr-s

It'll probably leak eventually, even with a really good place. Time to buy a Miata.

EAGLE5 12-11-2014 04:36 PM

Seriously, though, call the two shops I listed. They both do tons of work for dealerships.
