i dont like the way that specific wing looks. i personally think if the car looks pretty crazy and aggressive and the next thing is to throw on a functional GT wing, then the wing should be just a little more aggressive than that one. the spacing of that base looks "generic"... i think it would look cooler if the bases were at the edges of the trunk... and if the winglet-ends came down more. voltex wings are sick. but are ridiculously expensive too.

but then again, thats just all my opinion. even without that wing, my car cant stand a chance lol

It takes some time to get used to that wing I have. When I first saw it, I thought the same thing, too small and doesn't really flow well with rest of the car but more I look at it, wing doesn't look that bad at all. I'd be happy to try Varis or Voltex wing on my car but like you said they are about $2500~$3000, bit too much for just trying to see how it will look since I already spent $2300 on that GTS/GT4 wing.

Awesome work, lots of time and energy spent here!

For anyone buying their car new and want the weight savings, the sunroof delete option is available when you order your car. No extra charge (and no money savings either). An aluminum roof is provided though, not CF.

I remember around 3-4 years ago seeing one of my mechanics doing the same thing to the roof of one of his e90 race cars, the other one he managed to find where the original owner specified no sunroof already.

Hey man, those rings look SICK!

It's the most complimented part about my car, I get people complimenting alll the time or other BMW drivers making a gesture towards them.

You will grow to love them like crazy!

Couldn't have done it without my good friends @ LTBMW. Not only I was abled to shave off few pounds but that CF roof looks amazing in person. Totally happy with it.
