Yeah I've been looking into it today actually...

Requires the following parts:
  • [1] Wind Deflector (54 34 9 481 141)
  • [2] Windschott (54 34 7 457 891) x2
  • [3] Trim roll b (51 46 7 459 683)
  • [3] Trim roll b (51 46 7 459 684)



In the UK the factory option was £170 whereas the retrofit parts are over £400 plus fitting, so it's a massive difference. I would therefore strongly recommend anyone thinking about ordering a Z4 gets this from the factory!

I mistakenly assumed it would be the same price to order as an accessory later on but sadly not. The main issue seems to be the roll hoops are different on cars with the wind deflector from the factory.
