I’m interested to see what happens with this… I’m looking at a way of finishing my interior off with metal with the campteq topper on there
@ProwlerDriver Absolutely. . .should be easier/less labor once mine is completed. He mentioned using a specific type of aluminum that will allow it to flex/bend at the corners without making it brittle. Initially looked at aluminum for the dimple border and a single sheet of carbon fiber. After taking a second look at the OEM spars, changed gears to something similar to the above picture. Still aluminum dimpled border, but with a center spar running perpendicular to the OEM spars, and then 3 or 6 separate aluminum panels, depending if I want the spar exposed or hidden.I’m interested to see what happens with this… I’m looking at a way of finishing my interior off with metal with the campteq topper on there
Does this mean no headliner? Or behind it? Plan on sound deadening in the ceiling?
Headliner, yes but not in the traditional sense. I'm leaning toward the exposed spars and I'm pretty sure this will dictate the 6 panel route - where the panels serve as the headliner.Does this mean no headliner? Or behind it? Plan on sound deadening in the ceiling?

She's getting sprayed with Lizard Skin and Second Skin first, then one of Cascade Audio Engineering products as a final heat/sound barrier between the panels and the roof.
^^^This X 1KSo, function over form.
Remember when we first started talking. . .initially just the bumpers, then ideas of a crazy build. +/- 10 years and a lot of those ideas are coming to fruition now and while it's easy for me to point the spending-finger at you - which, trust me, I do on a daily basis - the vast majority of those ideas are possible b/c of your relentless pursuit of breaking molds.Your welcome!

This ^. I would love to see a solution for changing the factory headliner...thus eliminating it from being part of the fixed windshield and two rear panel windows. The solution (for me) would have to be clean, relatively simple, and factory-esque looking. Looking forward to what you guys come up with.
Much appreciated @bj70bcya nice work right there....
i like how its different from most other bumpers
