What would I have to pay for a new golf cabby roof?

[Lynzi_t]

I have a slight rip about an inch long right at the back of the hood so im looking into a new hood even 2nd hand would do as long as it was in good nick.

My roof dosnt leak it just looks horrible and once I have the clipper bodykit on and it all resprayed it will let the car down.

I would go for a Black or another blue roof even dark grey would look ok.

I just dont know where to start and you lot tend to have afew goo ideas on here... I know hoods can be expensive and I dont wanna pay a hell of a lot if I can help it.

Thanx

I know if you shop about you can get a good quality new roof for about ?300, but its the fitting that tends to be the problem. Its a bit of a specialist job, and not many people will do it. There is a video going around about fitting them, but I'm not too sure who would have a copy

?300 aint too bad.  I just ended up paying ?276 for an original clipper bodykit quite expensive but a nightmare to get hold of one.

This bloody car is gunna cost me a fortune. OUCH!

Thanks Dinky ive emailed him so fingers crossed I might get hold of a copy

just a thought but sometimes if the tear is near to the stitching or not too bad it can be repaired. im just thinking of a short term option if need the money for other things

Unfortunatly its not repairable Ive had it down to our local place that does hoods and seat covering.

  My fella has just glued the flap where the tear was and its stuck and dont look too bad either   think I will leave it until a bargain comes up

Cheers for the help
