To think people whinged at me when I proposed carbon covering my mirrors! Then AM go and wallpaper the whole roof with the stuff! V12V Carbon Fibre Roof "Wrap"

Does anyone know if the carbon fibre roof panel option on the V12VS is a genuine structural part OR is it a non-structural "wrap" on top of the aluminium roof?
Thanks!
For that price, I would definitely want a structural piece of carbon, and until this happens I shan't be buying one Thanks!
This is on the website: V12 Vantage S offers the greatest range of exterior options ever created for Vantage. An optional carbon pack layers wing mirrors, rear lamp infills and side-strakes with a symmetrically woven carbon-fibre finish. Roof and rear panel graphics packs - painted by hand - can contrast or complement the body colour. An all new black finish for side window surround offers further customisation.
So I think it's a painted roof, not carbon fibre or carbon fibre wrap. The wing mirrors and stuff on the other hand...

So is this carbon effect paint? clever stuff. It must be similar to that tartan paint I heard about, I think I may have the wrong end of the stick .So I think it's a painted roof, not carbon fibre or carbon fibre wrap. The wing mirrors and stuff on the other hand...

It is bordering on being a bit "Naff". Alfa Romeo have launched a little car called I believe a 4C which is totally made of Carbon Fibre, surely AM could come up with a roof panel. Still they have ordered £17 Million quids worth of CF panels from Pro Drive. robgt said:
