e30 sunroof delete cars...?

[accident]

how much does it really stiffen up the chassis though? surely the sunroof panel helps with some of the deflection?

i hate slicktops, i dont understand why everybody gets such an erection for them. sunroof ftw.

increased rigidity (no hole in roof), increased headroom (useful for taller folks or if you are going to put a cage in), reduced weight up high from cg.

mostly makes no difference on a street car but on a race car, yes.

my 87 325es might as well be a slick top.....

cause the sunroof motor is dead.

My 318i is a slicktop, pretty sweet...

It's NLA. Makes life much more difficult for my M3 project.

The only US cars that were slicktop were the 1991 318iS and it was still very rare.

Ehhmm 318i 4 doors as well. ;)

I took mine out and did a CF delete. Easy task.

How did you affix it?

this makes me feel good about having my slicktop :)

Like Mr 325 said, the only US spec cars that didn't have sunroofs were 318is models, and relatively few of those as well.

On the other hand, in the rest of the world non-sunroof e30s seem to be much, much more common.

If you really really wanted a slicktop the non-sunroof roof panel is still available direct from BMW. Cut, weld, paint, slicktop.
