I don't think that that was the accident that led to the rebuild though - on his website he says 'March [2007] ended on a down note after kissing a tree, damaging the left rear suspension, wheels and body work'

Yes this is definatly not that crash. Not happened with a tree and also this is from 2010. I dont remember pictures from a 2007 crash but maybe he posted something on GoT.

Never realized that there had been 2 crashes

Yeah, looking again at the photos you posted the car doesn't look like it's Sterling Grey (it's original colour) but colour in photos can be deceptive and appears to have the aero skirts - both of which point to that accident being after the rebuild...

It was repainted a Lamborghini color IIRC.

I LOVE your car! It's one of the best looking ones i have seen so far even if it's a 2.0L.

The wheels and bumpers look amazing and the white and red is spot on!

Thanks mate! It’s taken me a while, but well worth it!

Looks great! A good candidate for the “all-red” rear lights mod if you’re wondering what to do next.

Hmmm do explain? You got any photos?

BMWZ4MC wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2018 11:02 amLooks great Jingle. I’d debadge it though, at least the boot badge, and cover the boot lock.

Yes I know I really want to do it, I’ve got a blank plate to cover the lock aswel I’ve just not got around to doing it yet

Ohhh I like that! Is there a link for it? Is it just a small section only put over the clear parts or a full size piece of tint over the whole lot?

Thanks

You're on your own now, sorry.

I'd imagine it's just a small piece of red tint film or masked off painted area on either side.

that's how I did my rear lights, just masked off indicators and sprayed with red tint spray

My previous Zed was slightly modded:

Mu current coupe is pretty standard, except for the exhaust and front lip, but some other small changes are planned.
