The Sun roof panel....

This is a direct replacement panel in carbon fibre and means that the sun roof retains its functionality 100%

I had quoted £150 but unfortunately I have underquoted for this, so its going to be £190 guys, sorry but can't get it any cheaper...

Still not bad price though

10 people are needed to order this as a mould will have to be produced

So......£190 and a 25% deposit


1. Mattyb

2. Demlot

5.

6.

7.

8.

9.

10.




Finally

I have had some interest in those of you wanting boot lids and front wings in cf.......

Very straight forward again, just need 10 for either and it can be done.....

boot lids normally retail at £550 but I can do these for £450 !!!!!

Again would need 10 to make it !!! the front wings will be £450 a pair !!!

i forgot about this. im in no hurry so when/if it happens im in.
The Mtech2 cf e30 touring roof spoiler...!

Need 10 for this one and the part to make the mould so if anyone has a PERFECT example to loan please PM me and I can make it worth your while.

The retail price is £329, and this is because we have to cover the cost of making the mould.

I have however done my very best to reduce this to £270 !!!! not bad eh

Thanks Fuzzy,...I guess we will have to be patient and wait until we have the numbers.

I will remind those who showed interest and see if that helps move things along.

As soon as we are there I will put the order in !!!! :D

Going to post some more pictures of carbon fibre just to get people excited !!!!!!! :twisted:

I may well be interested in a bonnet, front wings, sunroof panel and boot once the car I'm selling is bought. I'll wait until that happens before I put my name down.

I want a lot of these parts!!!!!!! However, i'm going to sit in the corner and cry as i can't afford them at the mo!!!!

Think i spoke to you before mark, when you did the bonnets (i have one - it is superb!!!) and suggested a one piece touring rear tailgate with tech2 spoiler on it!!
No more rusty tailgates and a bit more weight saved!!
Would anyone be interested in that?? Fuzzy??

You will have pm in a minute Mark.....

Hi Miniblob,

Just read the pm you sent me...No problem with that at all ! so I will try and get more touring boys involved, 9 to be specific, and then deposits. Its getting people that are serious about it to commit thats the problem, ......but lets be patient and we should eventually get the numbers.

Any chance you can post up some pictures of the spoiler..? different angles and close ups of the fixing points ?

Cheers

Mark.

would you have a rough price for just the rear boot lid for a touring, assuming you can put a standard tech 2 spoiler on it...

Will get some pics of the spoiler for you sometime next week Mark.

As i said, don't know if it would be worth doing tailgate and spoiler separately to get more interest? Your call really!!

I'm happy to obtain a tailgate too if needed (got rid of one a few months back - bugger!!), i'm sure someone on here could provide us a cheap one!!

I've put myself down for a sunroof panel, and I've included the various lists in this post as I think they stand at the moment. Amend them if they're wrong as I just went digging back through the thread to dig out the information.

I think it would help make the thread clearer if the last post always has the current lists of orders in it so people can see at a glance what's what. People may be more inclined to add their name that way.

I'll be back to add my name for other parts soon hopefully.

New sunroof panel is £116+ painting from http://www.c3bmw.co.uk/StockItem.asp?ca ... m=unassign

So £190 sounds good to me.

Could you offer a discount for front wings, bonnet and S/R panel? And how much weight would this save?

Saving up as we speak and will be for some time
many thanks Alex
I said:

Can anyone suggest how to test if the boot lights are staying on with the boot shut?

Hi Zerocool.................do you have a pic of the deleting panel, as you know this run of panels are intended to replace the oem item. It would be good to see what the difference is.
