Cool OEM CSL Roof install on my M3

Well Guys,

I got a wonderful gift from a good friend and member on here, an OEM CSL roof. He had it lying around at home since last year but didn't get the chance to install it. We came to an agreement and he dropped the roof off at my shop a few weeks ago.

I set about ordering the adhesive, applicator gun and front and rear window seals. Everything arrived in a week but the adhesive took 5 weeks to get here. Thanks to member disapr for the advice on which glue and gun to get.

Some pics.....











Dropping the car off at ekanooracing on Saturday for the install. Thanks so much to ekanoo and staff for the support.

I'll keep the thread updated with as many pics i can during the install.

Might get the BBS CH's refurbished at the same time.

Hehe, I never ordered a sunroof from factory on both the E46 and E90.

But yes, I really should have kept my OE CSL Roof. On the bright side, I will be getting an Evolve CF Roof

So here are pics from today with the interior removed and ready to start drilling and grinding away spot welds etc.





This is in order to remove the roof. I have been told from tomorrow they will not be pausing for pics So i'll have to make do with any pics I can take when i get a chance to visit the garage.

more updates to come tomorrow.
