Default carbon Fiber Roof Panel

While at Carlisle I met up with Dave from Melrose Glass and talked to him about making a Carbon Fiber Roof Panel for our Z's.
Dave has agreed to make the panel if we can get an order of ten or more. The panel will be complete with new hardware and weatherstriping.

Cost is 1500.00

How much weight savings, if any, are we looking at?
I don't care in terms of total vehicle weight but more from the perspective of ease of removal and install.

Yeah you might be right. The Carbon top does not look that good.
