If you plan on keeping your car forever then do it, but if are going to sell it at one point you'll never get your investment back.

Don't think that your car is going to become a Lotus Elise just because you drop about 40lbs from the top. Yes, it'll make a difference, but not to us wannabe racers that go to the track once or twice a week (I am one of them BTW

)

Basically this is mostly a cosmetic mod!

Hey fern thanks for the part numbers , The roof molding is that the outside pieces ? cant I reuse the stock ones?

the csl roof molding comes painted (jet black) and has no bike rack openings. yes, you can use your oem ones and just paint them black.

as for the color. .im not really sure if its jet black. i know its not sapphire or carbon black, so im just assuming bmw used jet.

Good choice! Post up a thread with pics and lots of details, along with the cost for everything! I'd like to do this somewhere down the line if it could be done in the $2k range (non-OEM).

Anyone have this done in the delaware philly area?
