I don't think anyones gonna remove their roof just to weigh it...it's a ton of work (10 hours+)
like simpply said. But isn't the roof just sheetmetal like the fenders? I mean when you rollover, your roof is toast and the thing that saves your *** is the frame/pilars. I have absolutely no proven data but I can't see the roof weighing more than 30lbs or so. We already know the sunroof assembly is 28-29lbs....
...so wouldn't you be saving more like 50 lbs on a complete CF roof replacement instead of the 100+ lbs? Was fiber images the one that gave simpply that 100+ lb claim? Again, i'm not about to rip off a roof and weight it, but you know fiber images is more than generous with their claims.

def. looks super clean. Maybe it'd be worth it to remove the whole assembly and try to fix it
in place. Wonder how hard it'd be to epoxy it as nicely as I see on Simpplys car.
