First post was just updated with more empty promises. What do B-pillars have to do with a roof overlay? You claim "high quality" and "Best fitting" yet you have never even made a roof overlay before for any make. The B-pillars look nice, but I could lay some B-pillars in my garage and make them look nice too. Roof on the other hand is a totally different story.
You should make the product, there is obvious demand for roof overlays but until you show a finished product your going to be hard pressed to find someone willing to dish out $600+. Also, did I read that right ? Average price is $1,000 ? YIKES

If you read any my posts... You would have clearley seen...
I clearley stated that the B pillars were just to show the quality of our work.
You ask how can I offer high quality when I havnt made one yet? Ok I just showed high quality work for one. And two I answered that question in my updated post even before you probobly read this therad. I clearley said that I wouldnt advertise something we werent sure of. I wouldnt advertise something if we couldnt get proper fitment. Its like toyota advertising a new car that flies all over tv. Then when the car comes out it turns out that the wings dont work quite well so it doesnt fly.
Ask anybody who is in this business. B pillare are no different from a CF roof cap. They are practically the same shape (a flat surface with 4 edges) and the only different thing is its bigger... Piece of cake.
I also said I dont plan on taking orders until we have something to show. Again if you read the first post instead of trying to jump on the same boat as some of the posters up above.
Lastley if you think $600 + is expensive for a nice big quality piece of carbon fiber on a nice new luxury sports car then yes 1000 will be yikes. But we all know you truley get what you pay for in this field.
Cheap turbo? - broken engine
Cheap racing seates if you dont want to pay? - broken neck
Cheap carbon fiber hood? - broken many things once it flips up on the highway
Cheap body kits? - we all know...
I feel like I'm describing a honda.
Check out these examples of carbon fiber below

Listen guy, what I'm telling you are these "products" your showing us aren't showing us anything. Seibon parts "look" great too, until you fit them or wait a year and see how they start to crck/fade.
Facts are, you're a new company that nobody knows of. Your trying to get people to commit to interest in a G37 roof cap by showing 370z Bpillars (uninstalled) and a 370z roof (uncut and unbuffed). I've kept up with your threads on The370z.com, not very good.
The last company coming in here claiming to be better then company so and so, and claiming amazing quality, ended up getting put on blast and where are they now ? (I'm speaking of Status Elite incase your wondering). Just make the roof, if the quality is good enough and the price is fair then people will buy it. Like Kidcane said, we expect the highest quality for the cheapest price.
