Used Alfa Romeo Spider Roof Panel

The Alfa Romeo Spider covered here ran from 2006 to 2010 as a single generation based on the 159/Brera platform, so roof panels from anywhere within that 2006–2010 production window are your starting point when searching. There were no major mid-generation body style changes to the Spider in that period, but confirm with the breaker against your registration whether any mid-run pressing updates affect your specific car.

Both the 2007 and 2009 Spider sit within the same 2006–2010 generation on the same platform, so on the face of it you are looking at the same roof pressing. That said, confirm with the breaker against your registration that no mid-generation changes were made to the panel between those years, as subtle pressing revisions can occur without a formal facelift.

The Spider and Brera share the same underlying platform, but they are distinct body styles — the Spider is a two-seat convertible and the Brera is a fixed-roof coupé — so their roof panels are completely different and will not interchange. Stick to panels sourced from another Spider rather than a Brera.

Trim level does not affect roof panel fitment on the Alfa Romeo Spider; the pressing is the same across trim variants including the Lusso and S. You may find cosmetic differences such as the condition of any headlining or finishing strips depending on what the breaker includes, but the panel itself will be the same part, so do not let trim level put you off a good-condition example.

The roof panel itself sits on the centreline of the car and is not handed, so a panel from a left-hand-drive Spider should be the same pressing as the one on your UK car. It is still worth confirming with the breaker against your registration that no regional production differences exist, particularly around drain channels or aerial mounts that could vary by market.

Give the breaker your full registration so they can verify the exact build details, and confirm you need the panel from a two-seat convertible Spider rather than the related Brera coupé, as the body styles are completely different. It is also worth asking the breaker whether the panel is from an early or later car within the 2006–2010 run, so they can flag any differences they are aware of before you commit.
