i am with you on that ... plus i think that one day you might even loose it somewhere driving on the freeway ... it's not too safe to put it on 3m tape + it's gonna look like a crap i think ...

I think it goes under the stips on the sides I dont think it could fly off honestly though.Infact if installed right next to impossible.

Both are GHETTO......period. If you want to get CF hood and roof, do it right, wait for the Vorsteiner CF roof to hit the streets and go for the Vorsteiner CF hood....plus, this is a

ironic · 10-25-2007, 01:34 PM

it's just a cover for the roof

judec · 10-25-2007, 02:23 PM

that roof cover is soooo pathetic, OMG! U wanna look like U have an M3? Or U wanna look like U have a light hood like from M3? OMG! U'll look like a cheapo fool, everyone will see the difference.

And that CF hood is more expensive like the Vorsteiner one. Go and ask the guys @ Jlevi for price, too much $$ to be wasted on ebay.

whats so funny? everyone except NA gets the E92 325....

Who said that Vorsteiner is going to come uou with CF roof in the first place?

I do not mind a stick-on carbon cover as long as it is hard dry carbon. I was going to paint my roof anyway. As somebody has mentioned, there is too much risk of material turning yellow under CA sun.
