Hi all,

Is anyone breaking, or know anyone breaking, an E30 Baur?

I've just purchased an 1988 E30 Baur however there is a tear in the convertible roof.

Looking to get a replacement for the roof so if anyone could recommend where I can get one of know of anyone selling one, that would be awesome.

Thanks,

Charlie

Thanks Brutus, I've looked on Ebay but couldn't find anything. The damage is on the rear section of the roof so I'd ideally like to change the whole roof if i can, but if not ill just change the rear section.

Why change the whole roof as they are two separate parts?

You could try http://www.carhood.com and get yours recovered or try to source a hard top section for the rear as they look cool.

My hood ,all of it, looked old and tired but was in one piece so I re-dyed the whole lot then proofed it and it looks the dogs !!
I also replaced the rear window with clear PVC from e-bay by using a marine contact adhesive . It may not be for the purists out there but I challenge you to tell from the outside.

Only the E46 cab left now.
Just got too old.
