It is sheet aluminum, that weighs about as much as a pack of cigarettes.

Re: What to do with this....
For about $300 you could get a cheap pop-up sunroof installed in your car, that may be your best bet. It won't add too much weight and it'll be a cool addition in the process (much better than a piece of sheet metal IMO since this is your daily).

I can give you a few shop names later, but hit the yellow pages and call around a bit in the meantime.

No silly. If I get a sun roof, I won't get another shell. If I don't get another sun roof, I will get a new shell  |
