I've been wanting a solid roof, carbon fiber as a replacement. I'm going to have to do this when it cracks again. I'm on roof number 4, but it's a known issue on ct.
Someone ought to make a drop-in rollaway version for open roof motoring!

I went thru that too. Rock hit right at the edge of the windshield and roof and it cracked both. Except I have VLC roof. With my luck first replacement VLC roof was defected so had to be replaced again under warranty. Glass installer I found in the Bay Area was Porsche approved and on the approved list of state farm so tidal out of pocket for me was $100. They replaced with Porsche OEM parts.

Do you know how much the VLC roof part was compared to plain glass?

I have VLC now...

I had a very similar crack with no visible impact, a beautifully clean crack starting above the passenger visor and looping over towards the drivers side visor that was almost the length of my arm when i noticed it. Was replaced under warranty as there was no sign of impact
