Veeeery Nice! My niece just bought the new Edge that has the Glassback. She said she always wanted a convertible so this will do. The appearance of your glassback fits so well with the accents on your car. Can't wait to see what you do next!

Words can't describe what I'm thinking, actually yes they can but they probably aren't allowed on the forum!!! [sm=icon_quiet.gif]That is BEAUTIFUL! I have heard of the glassback option, but never really seen a good picture of it. [sm=Flahssssss.gif]
Do you mind if I ask how much this ran you? And what type of shop does this? Lord knows none of our redneck glass shops could do this, I asked our local Ford dealer about this option last year and they didn't have a clue what I was talking about!
That looks really cool!!![sm=icon_rock.gif]
P.S. what type of jobs do you people have that you can afford all these "luxury" items???

The Glassback has to be installed by an authorized Webasto dealer. The list of shops is here: http://www.glassbackroof.com/dealer.html
They need you car for about 2 days. The car has to sit for 24 hours for the epoxy to cure...
As far as cost, i believe the price is going to vary from shop to shop... The retail is like $3,600 but I've heard of shops doing it for like $2,600... so you would really need to check with a local dealer (if you have one...)

Here's a funny: I went to GlassBack website and there is NO dealer in our entire state!!! I couldn't believe that! The closest one was 600+ mile from here. I was hoping to go see how they did it in person, and get an up close and personal look, guess not. The price is pretty reasonable though, I was expecting much higher. Thanks for the response!

That looks awesome. It probably wouldn't look right on my car, unless I did a blue/black theme instead of white with the blue. That definitely just makes your ride even more unique.
I hope I see you at next year's carlisle!

When it was first released I got a quote for $5,500 and I thought that was a little too much. I just went back on the site and there is an installer within 2 miles of my house lol. I might have to check with them on getting an updated quote.
