Yep, worth the effort though;

What did you do? Put a mirror on top of it?

That's impressive. $250 job.

Yes, Malamutalisk on here bought it. He's a great guy and has owned two 3.0 Z4's previously. There are also two Z3's in the family, one of which is being sold tomorrow.
I'm so glad it's gone to a passionate forum member

Car went in for MOT and 4 wheel alignment today. Passed MOT no trouble or advisories,

but although lots of numbers changed on the alignment sheet it feels the same. Anyone know from the photo what has changed please as it feels the same to me apart from the steering possibly feeling a little heavier.

Jingle came round to help me fit the hard top (correctly)

jock156, that looks ace! Especially like the matching halos between the headlights and front fogs. Great look

Cheers Barty

Side indicators have turned out a bit w**k, but at least I’ve tried it

Back to the drawing board!

Jeez. That's an amazing finish. I thought you'd taken a picture of the roof storage of your garage through the engine bay or something at first. I was most confused until I realised it was the reflection... You'll need true pilot sunglasses when driving that on a sunny day!
Yep, worth the effort though;

I had a black one previously which was on for about 20 minutes. I didn't have the special locking tool (which I didn't know about!).

Cue a black hard top about 50 feet in the air as I joined a dual carriageway about 60-70 MPH!

WHOOOOSSSSHHHHHHH! FFS!

No damage done (other than my pride), and a bit to the front of a van travelling behind me and a long queue of traffic as I and the van driver ran back to scrape it off the road onto the embankment.

Hence having Jingle around this time to make sure!
