Thank you very much. What a pity that we were not able to organize a small meeting during your Easter Nürburgring trip... :wink:

Yes. And I think the wheels are unique, because the rims are a mixture which is not available as a set. :D

Thank you!
It took a long time to find perfect OEM-exhaust tips with almost the same angle than the original ones have - especially because the inner pipes were also needed.
I have a second pair left, if someone is interested.


Below some new pictures from the Cote d'Azur:

Thank you very much!

Long time no news.

Update 1:
4 layers of liquid glass for both BMWs:
Image

Update 2: Self-made ///M-turn-signals on my Z:

Image

Image

Image

I considered a complete new design of the side parts, at first.
Finally I decided to build my own p&p-solution instead of that.

Unfortuntaley I have to re-paint them with plasti-dip, because I was too impatient... :mad0259:
So no detail-pictures for today.

I hope you like my turn signals! ;)

I've sold the 296 v-spoke winter rims and made my Z ready for the next winter with my new M3 CSL winter-wheels:

I wish all of you a merry Christmas!

I also made also a present for Christmas to my Z4. As we had very mild temperatures the past days, I've made the last layars of liquid glass for 2013:

After the polishing (6 layars in 2013):

It's great to have these mild winters, when you can open the roof!

Long time no update..

A lot of upgrades occurred in the meantime:

Toscany 2014:

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image


35iS rear bumper and carbon fibre rear spoiler from JL motoring (I had to buy a new trunk because of the poor fitment of the spoiler):
Image


CSL winter wheels coated provisionally in gunmetal:

Image

Image

Image



Lightweight Performance spoiler sword with self enhanced mounting angle installed:

Image


Self made skide skirts, matching the lightweight design (you can buy these - pm me for more info):

Image

Image


Unfortunately I had to sell the PP 269 wheels, because I self developed a M5 big brake kit for the Z4 (2 mm missing)...

For the first time, I had to install my BMW CSL winter wheels as interim solution, as they do fit with my new brakes:

Image

But of course I had to install some new summer wheels, that do also fit with the new brakes. I decided to go with BMW M4 wheels (M 437) in ferric grey.
In addition, my self developed rear skirts, fitting with the sword and the side skirts, I finished in the meantime (also available by pm):

Image

Image

Image

Ferric grey M4 wheels vs. black M4 wheels -> you know my decision:

Image

Image

Image

New carbon fibre diffusor:

Image

I hope you like my upgrades?

That looks pretty special, all looks like factory upgrades which imo is a nice touch.
