Hopefully this will be never be an issue but it is a safety concern and a risk you take.

I was quoted $1800 for my RS4 by a reputable shop a couple of years ago, so I'm thinking I'd get a similar quote for my moonroof-less M3. I suspect having a moonroof will cost more due to the increased labor of doing the inner retractable panel.
