it’s a BMW specific supplier.

as far as pictures… there’s only a handfull of people who have done this mod, to my knowledge only 13 other roofs have been sold in the world… The CSL obviously comes stock with this roof.

13 according to Vorsteiner when i purchased it from them 4 months ago. I’ve been working directly with the Vorsteiner reps too, since I’m doing the write up for them.

the only other option on the market is the OEM CSL roof from the dealer, which is no longer available without a VIN number.

What happened to the TEIN SS Coilover Suspension? i thought that was your next mod?

looks phenomenal and as blasphemous as it is to doubt CF work by you…it came out better than i expected.

on a side note…i’m really glad the only time i saw your car in person i was walking. i’m convinced that if i had been driving down main st in williamville when i saw it i would have gotten in an accident. it’s incredible. you should do some full car shots again now with the roof. :tup:
