The worlds first carbon roof'd 1 ///M

  Attached here the 1st ever BMW 1M fitted with 100%Carbon Composite Fibre Roof Panel.

The roof panel weight just 4kg compare to the original 16kg. It is a total 12kg of weight savings at the highest point of the car.

Because the structure of the car is reinforced by its cross members, the design of the original roof top was merely a skin, by replacing it with carbon fibre, weight and structure are both improved significantly.
