Well Vince, besides for the roll cage those parts will provide good savings! The roll bar just in the rear for the GT3 isnt light, especially a full roll cage, its actually heavy

I love the CF roof on your M3. The CSL CF trunk would have complimented well. Hey how were the inside noise with the CF roof?

Thanks alot Vince, it was a monsterous job to be done , sacrificing 2 windshields also , oh well!! Wind noise was about exact as stock, with the euro non sunroof headliner in as well! I had the cf csl trunklid as well but it didnt fit that well and i am meticulous, SO i took it off.. Same with the cf gtr hood, wasnt a big fan either

I am thinking of trading with Danile those BBS for my Hamman wheels. I also interested in those CSL parts if you still have them. I am going on a diet as well
