E88 rollbar?

low135 · 05-06-2018, 09:09 PM

I already know, if I wanted a track car I should have gotten a coupe. But I didn't and don't want that. I wanted a fun and capable convertible. I do however also want the option to do a track day here or there so I'm looking for options on bolt in roll bars. Does anyone know if the coupe bars fit the E88? I've asked in a couple threads I searched in but didn't get responses.

99.9% no.

The rear seat area/bulkhead area is different, interior is different to cover up the top mechanism. There is not going to be an off the shelf solution for you, likely.

Your best bet is going to be find a great fabricator, and be prepared to pay a handsome sum for a custom setup.

If I had to guess you'll be looking at $1500-2000 for a custom roll bar, installed, interior pieces trimmed, etc.
