Unless you use the Flux Capacitor to obtian the jets from the future.
I'm sure it could be done. I can't recall the year, but wasn't it the USDM Skyline (Plymouth - '50s or '60s?) that sported a green-tinted glass roof that covered about half the top? I know that car had a lot of flex.
Picking the right material and thickness would be key.
Personally, I waited several months just to get my '05 6MT without a sunroof, so this idea only holds a minor show-car interest for me. I wouldn't mind seeing it done, but definately not on my car.

sorry for the mis-understanding. don't get the domestic jets either... i hear they've got some problems.

I dont want to go through insurance and since ill have to be considering fixing/replacing my roof i want to know what other roofs are out there. i have a sunroof, but i was wondering if they make a roof i have seen thats all glass able to incorporate the sunroof? i did a search i didnt come up with any specific finds, so id really appreciate the input, thanks guys.
i didnt want to change my roof because i got hit by a bolt..... the bolt hitting my roof just sparked my interest in looking into other roofs being that before the bolt ever hit my roof i wondered what else could substitute the steel, do they have a carbon roof like that of the M6 on the market for the g?
