Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me on here. I had recently given my original e30 hardtop to a local bodywork shop but while spraying they dropped the hardtop causing the screen to smash :(any advice or help how to get a new screen
Many thanks

Mate, it's gonna be hard to find one I reckon and if you do it's prob gonna cost a few quid!!!
I'm in a slow process of stripping and painting my hard top but gonna get a pro to take the glass out, coz if that glass brakes it would prob cost more than what I bought the top for!

you don't have to take the glass out to paint it ..just the surround..the glass is bonded in
