Z4 coupe carbon roof skin at Geoff Steel

Post by 2skiddy » Wed Aug 06, 2014 3:51 pm

Hi, Just received a note to say Geoff Steel Racing are producing the E86 roof skin in carbon. Anyone got one on order or bought one, and no, I am not connected!
Cheers

Nope ... But would consider one. Do you know what the price is on the run?

Hi, I suppose the best bet is to get in touch with Geoff Steel Racing. I couldn't find it on their carbon listing, maybe as they have just started doing it? I'll send them an email and find out a bit more.

Haven't munich legends fitted one to a coupe recently?

Might be worth finding out if it's the same manufacturer

Sixspeed fitted one a few years ago, but I don't remember where he bought it.

Didn't he actually get involved in the manufacturing? I might be making that up but there is SO much on Zpost that I actually can't figure out whether they are coming or going with the roof project, the threads have been going on for years. But I'm sure he was involved in the making of it?

The same thread on zpost was looking at a removable option ... Making the car almost into a targa. But ... Again, as far as i can see it just pretty quiet now.

Joking aside, a carbon roofed coupe targa must be a good half way house?

Would be a great option question is how intrusive would it be to fit and what would the finish look like inside if it was a removable option - head lining ripped out etc.

Could turn in to a big and expensive job if the internal finishing was to be changed to a reasonable standard?

Hi, Got a response from Will Fields at GSR. The roof is £550 plus VAT, but they have a 10% off sale at the moment. For general sales ask for Vicki and for technical info ask for Will. They do have some photos BTW
Cheers
