its not really about having the sweetest car....it about knowing ur shit and doing stuff differently....
comparing a 3M CF roof vinyl to a DIY CF roof....i think you do have skills and know how....then u painted your own car (again something very rare) and did a good job with it....
hence i said u THE MAN !!!

So far, you have taken apart your car, did all the body work, made a custom Carbon Fiber roof, painted the car, and will put it back together and your worried about the a-spec install! lol, believe me, if you did all of that to your car, the a-spec is going to be the easiest part of this.

you should autoclave it with plastic film and you wont have to keep coating it with the clear coat... the autoclave would make it more stronger than leaving it under the heat lamp..and you should use the twill carbon it would look alot better
