2M Autowerks Carbon fiber roof GROUP BUY
🏁 E90 Carbon fiber roof GROUP BUY 🏁 $1795 🏁
We at 2M Autowerks are in the process of manufacturing our own E90 carbon fiber roof. Some of you guys might know that we have been making roofs for quite a few years. We currently make carbon roofs for the E36, E46 (coupe and sedan), F82, F87, Z3 M Coupe. We manufacture everything here in the US. Nothing overseas! Retail after the group buy will be 2K/ea but to kick this off we would ONLY need 5 buyers to finalize and lock in this price point. All roofs are made by vacuum infusion with your choice of 1x1 or 2x2 weave in either gloss or matte finish. All roofs are clear coated with PPG UV protection clear then wet sanded cut and buffed/polished and sealed. No price difference with any option you'd like. Current estimate build time to complete all 5 is approx 10-12 weeks. We just need 5 to fullfill this group buy. 1. Ace Damaso 2x2 (PAID) 2. Andre Wellesely 2x2 (PAID) 3. 4. 5. If you'd like to join in please chime in the comments or message me directly. We are based in San Diego and can also do the install for 2k. Cheers!!! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁 Pictures are from our F82 carbon roof and the mold picture is from our E46 mold as a reference. Thanks for the support everyone!

Interested, but would love to hear from folks with first hand experience given the structural nature of the part…
How many layers?

Carbon roofs are vacuum infused with the visible layer of 3k carbon. Then backed with 2 more layers of 12k carbon. This is what makes the roofs the exact tolerance of oem standards and same thickness basically. The “more carbon” doesn’t necessarily make it better. If you simply go off the more layers the better…the ln you’ll end up with an overweight part and overly thick product that won’t sit/fit well. |

Wish y’all had carbon parts for the e92; would’ve been a nice option vs ordering from Latvia.
Although, there are some incredible composite shops in Eastern Europe. Nice option for e90!

I would be interested with more info on the install. I looked for a thread but don’t see one. I think the front and rear glass have to come out and then it’s fairly straightforward to remove the steel roof and sunroof mechanism. My question is whether the old headliner can go back up with the fabric cover on the sunroof in use for aesthetics or whether that would lead to a hole in the headliner to address. Does the car throw a code if it doesn’t recognize a sunroof motor installed?
Jeez Louise I loathe sunroofs. |
