Looks awesome! White balance is a bit off and it looks like the car is in a different color

So the foil is gone and the roof is protected against the sunlight.

What do you mean with "protected agains the sun". My roof is exposed as well and ceramic coated, is carbon not "sunproof"?

 

[sessantanove]

So my roof was freshly built up with epoxy resin by https://cl-solutions.ch/ and painted with UV protection. A new matt film has now been added. I think that should be enough.

But is all this needed? Does carbonfibre degrade in sun or something?

Yes it does degrade.

Did you find the Eventuri intake a worthwhile mod?

 

[sessantanove]

Well, the price is very high, as we also have the Swiss test report, which costs a good €800. But the sound of the air always puts a little smile on your face.

New Mirrors

New parts

Nice. How did you get them on without scratching the originals?

I first removed the mirrors and then released the clips on the cover.
