Had 370Z Sunroof Installed

Looks nice. I do miss my sunroofs from previous cars I've owned but I've grown to live without one. Has this installation affected your in cabin noise?

Cabin noise with the sunroof closed or even in the vent position has not increased at all.
With it fully opened there is some increased noise but much less than traveling with a window opened.

Looks awesome, I certainly have no plans to track my car so I don't care one bit about the weight. However, I also don't plan to keep the car long so I don't know what that would do to the resale value. I hope my wife doesn't see these pics cause if so, I've just dropped a G!

Looks clean. I am just not a fan of cutting structural beams. But it does look nice.

No structural beams were cut. He had the headliner removed in five minutes and I had a good look at what they were going to do. They cut out a thin piece of steel (a section of roof) and moved a small aluminum rod that helped support the antenna.

That looks GREAT!!!

The Z should come with a sunroof, at least as an option.

I really don't think it detracts from the lines of the car too much.

I'm a fan of sunroofs if you don't care about tracking or weight.

Looks Good!
