Performance trim make the carbon roofs for escort cosworths, you need to fit a cage though before fitting one if you haven't already done so that is.

what is the point in it then? genuine question the only reason you'd go into that much cost to save weight is to compete but if it's not allowed i personally don't see the point unless it's just purely for cosmetic reasons or pub bragging, obviously it does save weight but if you can't compete then i see no real reason in wanting to loose all that weight and at such a cost.

thats why i mentioned it as i was just about to cut my escos about and fit one when i checked the rules and regs with the championships i was thinking of racing in and its not allowed...
If youve got a fast road and track day car its still a worth while saving on weight and id still do it straight away!!if youve got a road car with sunroof it saves 25kg iirc,my car is an ex works car with roof vents so not a massive saving even if i was to do it..
