Carbon roof

I don't have this myself (yet!), so I can't say whether this is considered the "best" or not, but as it's the only option I'm aware of, sharing it for consideration: https://www.geoffsteel.co.uk/shop/bmw-e86-z4-roof-skin/

I could be mistaken, but I think there may be some members who have installed this as well.

What mounts?

Presumably Sticky ones :lol: Isn't the E86 roof just bonded in?
Exactly. However there are 4 screws also holding the OE skin on, I'm not sure if they are provisioned for with the Geoff steel one but I imagine they are not really necessary, the bond is very strong. Goke also make one, I seem to remember it's more money but it's probably a dry layup rather than wet.
 
Four screws!

Thanx, anyone that can give a review?
Maybe several threads about this already, sorry if so
 
I ordered one of these just before they closed for Christmas. I Should have it within the next few days . Will let you know what it's like :thumbsup:
 
I believe a user called Sixspeed with a lovely white track Z4MC on here has one?
 
good roof, though furbishment was a little hit and miss. Some roofs were packed very nicely indeed (mine included), whereas some other left a lot to be desired, and arrived with damage. some also had hair/dust inside the layup, whereas mine was done very nicely. it was a little hit and miss. I believe GS ended up sorting it all out, however lots were delayed.

nice piece of kit. love mine. :thumbsup:

Would you have a link for this by any chance? Not having much luck googling this, and would be great to see some of the other options out there.

Actually, think I've found it - Crest Automotive appears to be the seller/distributor for these products now: https://www.catune.co.uk/products-Y2FyX21ha2U9Ym13JmNhcl90eXBlPXo0bSZjYXRfaWQ9NDcmY29tcF9pZD04.html

Hey @barrett.d, have you installed your carbon roof from Geoff?

Hiya .
Recived it a while back . Seems good quality . No bubbles or imperfections that I can see , well packaged . Haven't got round to fitting it yet , currently got a massive box in my living room , which my missus is really happy about :rofl:

Thanks for getting back. Have you figured out plan for installation including adding clear coat etc? Hopefully your missus doesn’t “accidentally” throw it away :)

I am thinking about doing this as well still in two minds at moment.
 
Luckily she's only small , so would struggle to shift it :D
I've got some aero skits that need spraying and fitting , and a skyer rear spoiler to go on . Gonna take it all to a local bodyshop and let them try and figure it out . Probably just give them geoff steel number so they can sort it from there .

Hi Barrett.d,
