Common BMW problem. My friend who owns several BMW's told me that in order to prevent that you need to put a piece of a sytrofoam noodle between it when closing and itll prevent that.

No, not rice, it is cheaptard, but we don't have a cheaptard thread and I'm not going to start one. I award no points for this fix because the first rain will still kill this car AND he destroyed the top with 1000 staples.
