That's correct BMW no longer sell them. They will however take an order for one and when there is enough orders then they say a batch will be made. How true that is we will just have to wait and see.

I need one however I wont be paying anywhere near £1500 for one unless its a never fitted brand new BMW one in the packaging. Geoff Steel Racing does them for circa £600 new so that's more than likely where my cash will go.

What's the cost to fit it and do you need any other bits?

Yes mate I have, its for my race car so not looking for OEM quality.
My CSL roof however also has a blemish but have been told it could be repaired. Placed an order anyway but will have it looked at next year
and see if anything can be done.

I can't see you getting much more than the GSR price though? Maybe a couple of hundred quid but then that's offset with removal/installation costs?
