Hi all, just bought my first z4 as the midlife crisis takes hold lol. It’s a 2003 3.0 manual with full history at 81k miles. It’s not perfect but I got it at good money (I think). It’s going into the body shop on Saturday to have the wings and front bumper repaired. Slight blistering on the front arches and a few stone chips on the bumper. This just annoys me. As in everything I get myself I tend to get a bit anal with it lol. One thing that is bugging me is trying to get a stereo facia that will actually fit correctly!! I’ve had two different ones and both didn’t fit. If anyone has any links to where I could get the correct one I’d be most grateful. Any other tips or tricks would be great. I’ve also got the chance of a set of e39 M5 alloys for it. Does anyone know if they’d fit? I’ve done searches but can’t find anyone who has these fitted to a z4. Thanks in advance

Andy.

Hi and welcome to the forum OP. :thumbsup:

I know what you mean about mid-life (or maybe late life) crisis - I bought my 1st when I was 55! :lol:

Sadly I can't help with your questions, but hopefully MrWilks may read this as he has plenty of experience of different wheels on Z4s!
