AMD says no international shipping  :hyper:

Does anybody know if there is roof sides or window sides available? My roof is good, but window sides or driprails, dont know their name, are in bad condition.

Someone else had a post  a few days ago about roof skins being offered now. I am a little leary of spending over $700 to get it here and then not having it match up real well.
i think i will let someone else be the guinea pig. I have all the tough areas just about patched on mine now. If i get a windfall of money in soon, i might take a chance and try one of those new roofs.

I bought a used roof for $125-back about 12 years ago.   :walkaway: Even if it needs some minor tweaking a NEW roof skin for $700 ain`t a bad deal these days.

Well i guess i am going to be the guinea pig. I just could not bear the thought of having to patch another hole.  :pullinghair: Patching is not any big deal, it is forming the peice of sheet metal with limited amount of tools and know how that is driving me bananas. And i still have to fix across the front and the back, and drivers side. So i ordered it today. It will ship tommorrow and i should see it in 5-7 days. So instead of worrying if it will fit or not, i am  :droolingbounce: for it to come. :bigsmile:
