Hello mate, not sure on the cost but a deffo yes on getting/needing one, makes a big difference. There are a variety available to you, others with hoops will be along to show you theirs.
I found it only made a difference with the windows up, but if you are going to drive with the windows up and have a wind deflector behind you, you might as well just get a car with a sun roof and not bother with a convertible.
Roof down, windows down and get that wind in your hair. (well that's if I had any hair)

If you have factory roll bars, Just roadster will sell you a perspex one, they attached with velcro straps
clear £95 tinted £105 i think? but they advertise on E bay or give them a call they are based near Doncaster but post all over the world

I bought mine from Just Roadster ( I have no roll bars) so I got in contact with them first to find out about fitting and they were very knowledgeable, turns out one of their directors has a Z3.
There you go, another useless fact.
Hi, depends what type of roll bars you have as to your options. If as I suspect you have the type I've listed in 'For Sale' under Genuine OEM Roll Hoops then you have two options. Firstly the genuine BMW mesh type which I also have for sale (such shameless plugs 
), these simply drop over the roll hoops and have little hook type brackets to secure them to the trim - many ebay offerings are missing these. Secondly you could have a rigid Perspex type, better rear vision but usually stop you getting into the top cubby box, harder to store in the boot. Mesh type have a centre drop down zipped section to give clear rear vision with hood up so you can leave the deflector in place all the time. I'm sure @Bozzy who has tried both will give you his views. I usually sell them at £100, in summer they sell on ebay around £120 but as we are in winter ebay will probably be a cheaper option as folk don't want them at the mo 
Ooh you'll need (but not essential) the longer studs that the hood cover clips onto also

If you check with @ BMBabe she has one of mine that is free standing and can be used with roll bars! Negotiate with her please! (Another shameless plug) lol
