Carbon fiber roof panels significantly influence a vehicle’s structural performance.
Contribution to Torsional Rigidity
Roof panels contribute to:
• Chassis stiffness
• Roll resistance
• Overall structural balance
A compromised roof panel reduces rigidity, especially under track conditions.
Hidden Damage Beneath Surface Cracks
Roof impacts often cause internal delamination invisible externally.
We use inspection methods to evaluate:
• Core integrity
• Laminate separation
• Mounting seam stability
Repair Method Selection
Depending on the construction, we may apply:
• Autoclave restoration for prepreg roofs
• Vacuum infusion reinforcement for large sections
• Wet layup precision repair for localized damage
Structural Validation
After curing, we verify:
• Surface contour
• Dimensional alignment
• Structural consistency
Roof panel repair is not cosmetic bodywork. It is a structural restoration.
For luxury performance vehicles, restoring chassis integrity is non-negotiable.
