You and I both know your car will never come off those jack stands.

Hey it's cool, just send them over to me when you're done and they'll be two time use tools!

I should make a new thread here and post that info here. I'll do that tomorrow.

If you get one, please post a pic of the underside. Curious to see if it’s the same layup as the E92 M3 roof.

Does anyone have any leads on a OEM Carbon roof ? Maybe one that never got installed ? I have OE slick top and every part on car bas been oe csl, so I would like to keep it genuine with a roof as well. I will pay top dollar if anyone has any leads to one.

Thanks for all the advice, gents. I’m going to snag a metal roof and the 2M slick headliner seeing as the OE is NLA. This wasn’t on my initial todo list and now it’s too late for the genuine headliner. Boo.

2M replication is very good, you won't be disappointed. Second there are a few interior restores if you can order OE type material from.

If you're going to paint the roof get metal. The weight isn't that negligible between metal/CF panel. Plus it will cost you about $800 if not more to paint it anyways which would equal out to just buying the CF panel.

I did the metal OEM roof for that reason (paint match) - couldn’t be happier
