I'd imagine this would be more for those who can't find OEM and would like to purchase a hardtop. I can't see myself ditching the OEM top for aftermarket unless the quality were good and the styling were very different enough from OEM (and appealed to me).

As long as it weighs less than the oem and looks equally or better than oem i am keen to see it. Cant imagine this being very affordable however

I'm interested. I definitely want the defroster though.

I'm interested in this as well. I would definitely love something that doesn't look like the OEM design. There was a link listed on the Facebook page, http://d-moris-equipments.com/hardtop-z4---photos.html. This made the e85 look more coupe like.

Glad to see an aftermarket hardtop buzz after all these years.

Love the big rear window and it would be even nicer if it was mostly window like the Model X.

The side ones even more

I would kill for one of those Smoothline tops. Looking forward to seeing what they've got in the works. The OEM are rare as hens teeth, so it'll be nice to finally have more options for us Roadster guys.

I believe this is the D-Moris top from another angle. I'd recommend posting this in the FB group if any of you are involved there:



Can't say I'm a fan. I do like the side rear windows though!

[JCampbell_Soup]

The rear window is what makes it look weird, it is too long which ruins the shape of the actual roof. IMO it needs to be 3-4” shorter from the top to finish off the curvature of the actual roof.

Yeah, that tall rear window definitely does the overall design an injustice. The side windows look like they provide a good bit of blind spot visibility which is a nice upgrade.
