First impressions:
The roof is much lighter and firmer than I expected (without the windows).
There are minor grooves and chips here and there, but hey, I did not expect German built quality. The roof (most probably) needs to be trimmed alongside the little removable side covers on our cars. A dremel or Nakai-san should be your friend there


Recommendation was: take your time, let the roof sit on your car for a couple of days (btw...optimal conditions are pointing more towards the end of spring with ~20-25°C...lol...I have no heater in my garage, so barely above freezing temperature in there atm...lol), then re-adjust and ALWAYS make sure, that the windshield-roof alignment is perfect throughout the whole adjustment process...so much for the very welcome tips of the seller.

After the step-by-step adjustments are done, grooves/chips/and maybe holes ('cuz you cut away too much) are filled...then sanding, primer and the whole shebang...after that windows, seals, rubber, light and the other shebang

...to be continued

hi mate would you be able to send me a copy of the instructions?
