Sunroof Replacement for the 1989-1995 Ferrari 348 TB, TS, and Spider
Working on a classic Italian sports car like the 1989-1995 Ferrari 348 takes patience, respect for the machine, and a very steady hand. Whether you drive the TB, the TS, or the Spider, dealing with a cracked, shattered, or leaking roof glass panel is a massive headache. Water damage is the last thing you want inside a vintage exotic. I've spent years in the auto glass trade handling these specific older models, and I can tell you right now: sunroof replacement on a Ferrari 348 requires exact precision, not guesswork.
How We Replace Your Ferrari 348 Sunroof
You can't just slap a new piece of glass into a 90s Ferrari and call it a day. The tolerances are tight, and the original parts need to be handled with extreme care. Here is exactly how my team and I tackle the job to make sure it is done right:
- Interior Protection: First things first, we cover those classic leather seats, the dash, and the center console with heavy-duty protective blankets. Old urethane and glass shards do not belong anywhere near a vintage Ferrari interior.
- Careful Removal: We carefully cut out the old sunroof panel. We take our time here to avoid scratching the original paint or damaging the surrounding roof trim and fragile weatherstripping.
- Surface Cleaning: Once the glass is out, we scrape the old adhesive down to the bare pinch weld. We clean the entire track and frame thoroughly to make sure there is absolutely no dirt, debris, or hidden rust in the corners.
- Primer Application: We apply a high-grade automotive glass primer to the frame. This step stops future rust dead in its tracks and gives the new glue a solid surface to bite into.
- Premium Adhesive Installation: Finally, we lay down a thick, even bead of high-quality urethane adhesive and drop the new sunroof glass in perfectly flush. We double-check the alignment so it sits exactly how it did when it rolled out of the factory.
