Quaint. That must be a New England nugget.

You've got to adhere to the standards set by the years/models on the spec line under which you are racing. If all Si's came with a sunroof, and IF there were substantial structure under the skin, you could re-skin but not remove the structure. Abolishing the VIN requirement changes nothing about this.

All SI's came wit an sunroof. When yo uuse the rem "re skin" are you refering to drilling out all the spot welds to remove the exterior skin while retaining the braces? and on an SI model I believe there are extra braces for the sunroof. Since a DX would not have such braces.. would it be illegal..
In anycase, I think that if anybody were to protest a car for this reason would be very un-sporting. This would be a perfect option for somebody that don't know how to do body work but can cut out spot welds in his garage.

Thanks for all the responses.
After reading the different angles on this, I think I'll stay on the safe side and just make a sheet metal plug for the hole.
Please do. The car is a weekend project for me and I haven't put the cage in yet, so the sunroof plug is a ways off still.
I do not have pictures yet, but last night I did look at the GSR roof and the RS roof and they are just about identical. In fact you could argue that the RS has an additional roof brace that should be reomved as this is where the sunroof opening would have been.
IMO this is a mute issue.
