Hey how much did it cost to get that sunroof installed and does it make the body less stable or anything like that?    why didnt they put one in from the factory?  and how easy is it to install those new HID's? 



thanks Brennan

its said that putting a sunroof would compromise the rigidity of the frame on the speed3. but i havent felt ne loss watsoever. ive sat in this guys speed 3 from the neighborhood and its still very stiff and still little body roll. HIDs would prob be the easiest mod u could do urself (aside from the stickers u put on)
