If you can afford a BMW then you can afford to take it to a BMW dealership to replace the alternator. Cold blooded answer. I will research (and if necessary replace one) and place proper information on replacing a BMW Z4 roadster alternator. Original answer obviously given by someone with perceived wealth envy. I am currently replacing the alternator in my 2001 525i, E39 chassis. I will add my progress with instructions here. This is NOT the water cooled unit. The first thing that I did was to disconnect the battery. Next, remove the air cleaner housing. this was achieved by loosening the hose clamp to the air intake, removing the 10mm securing bolt and then removing two 8mm screws that secure it to the "second section" of the air intake unit. There are also two clamps that should be flipped out of the unit using a flathead screwdriver. The air cleaner housing should then lift out.

this is just like any other alternator on any other car. first disconnect battery, next remove the serpentine belt but make note of its routing so you will know how to install correctly. next the alternator is located on the left bottom on the engine. sudjest removing from the bottom, remove connector and main chargine wire from rear of alternator, unbolt bolts and remove alternator, if this seems to complex then take it to a BMW dealer to have it performed, also i recommend a approved BMW alternator, prefer actual BMW one.
