07 S40: Has anyone deleted their sunroof?

A leaky sunroof, a million and one life demands, a ruined leather seat and a collapsed headliner have made me reconsider my commitment to Volvos... I suppose I still want to believe. Has anyone ever deleted a sunroof on the P1s?

I know this video is for the DIY drifting community, but have any of us gone this route?

Found a 240 Write-up of the process:

Something like this would be perfect...

Just wrap over the sunroof. Your goal is to keep water out and not turn the car into some kind Frankenstein drifter with those rivets. You can even just wrap the front half of the roof. No one will look up and see the line.

The front of the hood on my Son's GS430 is heavily pitted and rusting. Was looking for info on hood wrapping. Looks like all the work for me will be in the prep to smooth out the paint rather than the actual wrapping. Plan to just wrap up to where a car bra would normally be. Such a craftsman!
