Evolve G81 M3 Touring + Full Carbon Roof and Hood

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
We've been working with Alpha N on various projects since 2016 and our M2 GTS project which has a whole suite of their parts on it including a CF roof well before BMW introduced the M2 CS.

In a conversation with Alex the owner of Alpha N a few months ago we talked about the feasibility of him making a CF for the M3 Touring as they don't come with one from the factory. He said it would be possible but he wasn't sure if people were crazy enough to fit one.



BMW nailed the design of the Touring but sitting next the our G82 it was a consistent reminder of how good it would look with the CF Roof.

The theme of our build so far has been "CS/CSL" so far using OEM parts where we can. Adding the CF Roof is like the cherry on top. While we were there we thought it would be rude not to fit the Alpha N CF Hood which we also have on our G82.

Incredibly pleased with the results which are very much OEM ++ which is far removed from our more wild/less subtle G82 build.

Looks incredible!!!

Did you consider adding red striping to the hood vents to continue the theme, or was it too much?

I wanted to but Imran@Evolve said it would probably be a bit too much, and he's probably right now seeing it finished.
