You chaps overseas must have far more opportunities to obtain such things than we here in the states. I looked high and low for a couple months for my HT and only managed to locate a handful of OEM examples. A Wiesmann (99.9999% of Americans are not familiar with that company) or a Hamann are like unicorns here--unobtanium or near to it.
Luckily, I like the silver-on-black of my combination (with silver painted OEM wheels there is a sort of harmony) and the rearward visibility is a notable improvement over the soft top.
I must say, no offense to RF, some of these 2-tone combinations strike me as stunning, though the red-on-black is a bit much, without some subtle red details to tie it together.
Cheers,

The carbon top is cool. It would be better if it lost the bumps. I wonder how much less it weighs?
I like the looks of the hard top, but if I were to get one then that would mean I would drive it in the winter. As far as I know my girl has never seen winter driving, and that's what makes her look so young. My body shop guy thought my 2001 was a 2012.
Found this in Florida for anyone within driving distance.

This is slightly off topic, but I would love a lemans style hard top like the one for Cobras.

I'd almost trade my SC Dakar Coupe for the evergreen roadster. Very nice. Perfect color for a FLA car.
Got the Hamann hardtop painted in car's color.

A different angle:
Sorry, I shared this on the Daily Pic thread also, but felt it belonged here.

Love the paint job--nothing looks quite so wrong as a mismatched hard top on a Z3.
I didn't mind the 2-tone but like the silver hardtop better. Called me biased since I have an Arctic Silver with matching hardtop.
If you live in New York, how do you not have a front license plate? I'm in New Jersey and have to have a front plate unless my car is 25 years old, or I run illegally. Jealous!

I am not in NYC. You will not see me taking this car to potholes central. I am far East in LI. Car is garage kept and even if I do go somewhere, it gets parked in a garage. But, chances are I will eventually either get a ticket or mount it. I have both, center and bumper mounts
