Hello everyone,
I bought my 15 mk7R about 4 years ago and have loved it. I purchased it used with a roof rack on it and had not removed it until recently. Unfortunately when I removed it I discovered the mounting points are rivetted (or at least I believe) to the roof. I was wondering if there was any way to remove these without compromising the roof, or if there is something like a CF roof to replace it. If there is nothing I can do is there any way I can ensure that there aren't leaks in the mountings? Finally, the dealer I purchased it from never told me about this modification, do I have any leverage to get $$ out of them if it impacts resale value? I have attached image below and can take more if people are interested, thank you.
