Sunroof OUCH !
« on: January 22, 2008, 21:53:27 »
Just a word of warning  :'( If you use the steel sunroof on your truck to mount a magmount CB aerial take it off when you have finished with it !!!!!!!  :evil: Left mine on for the offroad cool factor  :roll: ( Comments about being a knooob to the usual address )  :lol: :lol: and coming out of the gym tonight as it wasn't raining and i was abit hot and bothered I OPENED THE SUNROOF  :doh: Wouldn't normally be a problem but mine had no cover on the bottom just ruff steel  :-> :-> I'm now the proud owner of a 4 " wide, 1mm thick gouge for the full legnth of the sunroof, down to the metal !!!!!! Ok when in the car but I feel sick as a dog when I look out the bedroom window  :oops:

Sorry to hear that.  Makes me rather glad I decided not to bother swapping the roof from the Vogue SE to the Vogue!!  A good independent auto-paint supplier will be able to supply you with a can of matched paint (aerosol) for about a tenner or so.  The list of jobs just never ends does it!  It's almost as if RR's were made by women!!!!!

Barrie, if the car is metallic then I'd suggest you paint the sunroof semi-gloss black, getting metalic to match is a PITA.

Not so bad then, with a bit of effort you should get it looking like new.
