2 series accessories

I did a search and didn't see too many accessories available for the 2 series. I am looking into getting a roof rack and a bike carrier for my 2.

BTW, I'm curious if an E90 roof rack would fit the F22.

Here is a link to one of the discussions on racks. http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showt...ight=Bike+rack

There is an official 2 series base rack. The bike mounts work on all BMW racks.

Thank you for the link Dan! I'm contemplating the OEM rack or an aftermarket one. I understand that I would have to buy an aftermarket fairing and fit it on the OEM rack.

I am really trying to hold out for a hitch to use my "One-Up" rack but am running out of time

Looks good! Isn't it noisy without the fairing?

What's funny is that I actually bought a roof rack for my E90 but never used it. I ended up selling the car a few weeks after I bought the rack. I wasn't using it and didn't think that it would fit the F22 so I sold it to a friend for $150 with one bike holder (pretty much how much I paid for it used from CL). Now I'm looking to get the same thing and it's going to cost me quite a bit more. The things I do...

Can't really hear much with the windows up.

Talk to Sun Motors for the best price.

For one bike, I fold down the seats and take off the front wheel. It fits in perfectly. I only use the rack when my wife comes with me.

Does the 5 series rack fit the 2? I imagine it should fit the 3 and this the 2, no?

The Ceramic iDrive touch is quite an aesthetic feature to have after installing the M performance interior trims.

Bumping this- does anyone know whether the base support rack for the 5 series would fit the 3/2/1 series? I'm looking to pick up a used one. Thanks!
