First BMW Motorsport M2 Roll Bar in NA!



BMW has remained consistent in their choice of supplier of vehicle safety systems for over a decade. By working with a single technology partner for all BMW roll bars, BMW has maintained a very high standard of quality and fit that can truly stand up to their own stringent standards.

At IND, we have leveraged our European business contacts to obtain original BMW roll bars for various M cars, from the E92 M3 GTS to GT4 spec bars. Just recently, all of us at IND were excited to receive the first ever F87 M2 roll bar in North America, designed by BMW and utilized in the M2 MotoGP safety car.

This roll bar is designed to use the most rigid possible chassis mounting points, and has x braces on both the main hoop and the rear tubes for the highest rigidity possible. The main hoop x brace is also gusseted for additional strength. The weld quality, fit, and finish are second to none, and are a perfect fit with the M2.

Nate, I'd like too now more regarding what needs to be removed before installing the roll bar. Can you share install details?

Very happy to see that it items like this can be sourced and brought to the US and hope that BMW expands their " m performance " line to actually include items like this as dealer items or via Motorsport vendors.

Love the install and the seats look fantastic.

That's a nice piece; I think I'd prefer to leave it unpainted to show the welds...sexy!

This is some interesting "candy" ...

Why would BMW go to the effort to create a roll bar for the M2 safety car that's able to be replicated ... ? ...

Pretty sure it's not for the aftermarket sales volume on roll bars ... and unless there are multiple M2 safety cars ... seems like this would be a one off ..

You'd expect it to be very similar or the same as the bar for the M235iR. Unless there were plans to replace the M235iR with an M2 racing version?
