CF roof for E92 with sunroof

Thought I'd give the MA folks a heads up:

Just want to see if any one of you with a sunroof optioned E92 will be interested in having a direct replacement carbon fiber roof. This is going to be manufactured by a well-established tuner in Europe. They have been making CF roofs for E36s and E46s for quite some time now so they know what they are doing. The new CF roof will be made of resin pre-impregnated carbon fiber and will be autoclaved to maintain the highes level of quality. It will also retain the stock sunroof (100% operational and functional).

The process involved will be:

1. Order a factory M3 CF roof
2. Size it up to a sunroof optioned E92 M3
3. Create the cutout on the stock roof
4. Create a mold out of the cut stock roof
5. Manufacture new roof


We don't have all the details regarding the cost worked out yet, but if we can get 3 people to commit (including myself), the cost of the roof will be substantially reduced (basically to spread out the cost of the mold). I will get more on pricing next week. You can either reply to the thread or PM me if you have questions.
