Doesn't look like the last picture of the decal loaded so I'll try again Had to do a little bit of work on the roof to get it ready to fit. I had several coats of UV resistant lacquer put on it but it had a few defects. Decided to smooth them out before fitting, easier place to get water while sanding was in the bath Secure from the outside first... Then from the inside to check its alignment Had to mask the roof off to make sure I didn't get the sealant everywhere but the alignment still wasn't right Simple ways are often the best While the inside was secured an easy way too. You'll notice the aluminium blocks on the inside of the roof. These have been bonded and bolted to the carbon and drilled and tapped on the underside. I'll make and bolt 3 braces inside that will hopefully stop the roof from being pulled out by air pressure at speed. Then taped up the inside gap to stop the sealant dropping through Hopefully it will all be bonded in the next few days but this stuff was going off before i was finished! Not going to remove the clips and tape until Thursday just in case though, and then see if it's stiffened the roof. If not, I've got a plan to sort that later....

Let's just hope it stays in place! I checked the sealant when I left for work and it's almost set so 24hrs should be about right. As silly as it sounds, it's starting to look like a Honda again with the stickers back on. I may scan and make the rear badges as stickers to see what they are like

That sunroof bung looks tip top! Nice to see the DOHC stickers back on her as well

Slow, steps forward. There is more work, but for Saturday and Sunday, that's it!
