AST Multipoint Weld-in Roll Cage BMW Z3 Roadster V3

The AST Multipoint Weld-in Roll Cage BMW Z3 Roadster V3 is a full roll cage for the BMW Z3 with 2-door Roadster bodywork. This Multipoint Z3 Roadster V3 has ten welded mounting points and adds door bars to the V2.

The cage is designed and built by AST Roll Cages in Spain, for drivers who do serious track work and don’t leave the side protection of their open two-seater to chance.

Key benefits

• Door bars protect you in a side impact, the weakest point of a convertible.
• Ten welded mounting points distribute the forces better than the eight on the standard weld-in cage.
• Front structure to the bulkhead is retained from the V2.
• Solid base for the suspension, so your suspension travel behaves more predictably.
• E355 steel, 45 mm main hoop and 40 mm for the rest of the structure.
• Foot plates in 3 mm steel, designed for each car around the strong points of the floor pan.
• Complete weld-in kit with gussets and mounting hardware.

Fitting and delivery

Why choose this Multipoint Z3 Roadster V3 roll cage?

AST digitises the bodyshell with laser scanners and designs the cage in 3D, so that it fits your car exactly. With door bars this is crucial, as they have to fit into the narrow space between seat and door without restricting your freedom of movement. The cage is intended for track and competition use; always check the regulations of your own organiser before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

Does this cage also fit a BMW Z3 Coupé?

No. The Multipoint Z3 Roadster V3 is exclusively for the open Roadster. AST does not supply a cage for the Z3 Coupé, so this product is not suitable for the closed version.

How do I know the cage will fit?

AST scans the bodyshell of this model with laser scanners and then draws the cage in 3D. As a result, the welded mounting points and foot plates are laid out specifically for the Z3 Roadster and are not universal.
