Sunroof Replacement for Ferrari F12berlinetta & F12tdf (2012-2017)
When you are driving a Ferrari F12berlinetta or the track-focused TDF, you feel every bit of that naturally aspirated V12. But pushing over 700 horsepower puts a lot of stress on the chassis. If a stray rock on the highway cracks your sunroof, you cannot just ignore it. I have worked on plenty of these Italian exotics over the years. You need the right glass, the correct urethane, and an absolute perfectionist doing the job so you don't mess up the aerodynamics or risk water leaking into that gorgeous interior.
How We Replace the F12 Sunroof Step-by-Step
You don't just pry a piece of glass off a Ferrari. The tolerances are tight, and the materials are expensive. Here is exactly how my team and I handle your F12:
- Interior Protection: The very first thing we do is drape the entire cabin. We cover the Italian leather and Alcantara with heavy-duty protective blankets to make sure no glass shards, dust, or adhesive gets anywhere near your seats or console.
- Careful Removal: We use specialized wire-cutting tools to slice through the factory urethane holding the damaged sunroof. We take our time to avoid scratching the aluminum roof panel or damaging the headliner.
- Surface Cleaning: Once the old glass is out, we shave down the old adhesive bed to about a millimeter. Then, we clean the pinch weld thoroughly to strip away any dirt, grease, or leftover residue.
- Primer Application: Any exposed bare metal gets a coat of high-grade automotive primer. This prevents rust and gives the new glue a solid surface to bite into.
- Adhesive & Installation: We lay down a thick, consistent bead of fast-curing, high-quality adhesive. Next, two of us carefully drop the new OEM-quality sunroof perfectly into place. We secure it and let it cure so the seal is completely water-tight and wind-proof.
