Lightweight Performance
The Anderson Composites Dry Carbon Roof provides a substantial weight reduction compared with the factory metal roof. At approximately 7.2 lbs., the carbon fiber roof is approximately 9.55 lbs. lighter than the 16.75 lb. OE roof.
Because the roof is positioned high on the vehicle, reducing weight in this area can contribute to a more performance-focused build while also giving the Mustang a distinctive carbon fiber appearance.
Installation Notes
- The factory metal roof must be removed before installation.
- This is a complete carbon fiber roof replacement, not an exterior overlay or cosmetic roof skin.
- Professional installation is recommended due to the complexity of removing and replacing the factory roof.
- Proper alignment and installation procedures should be followed to ensure the replacement roof is correctly fitted to the vehicle.
Dry Carbon Finish & UV Protection
This Anderson Composites DRY carbon fiber roof does not include UV protection. If the roof will remain exposed to sunlight and will not be painted or wrapped, Anderson Composites recommends applying an automotive-grade clear coat with UV inhibitors.
A suitable UV-protective clear coat can help preserve the carbon fiber weave and protect the surface from long-term UV exposure.
