What have you done to your car today?
In the last two weeks; new CSL replica wheels and Rainsport 3 tyres, Grom audio setup, new suspension bushes all round. Feels like a different car without the runflats.
2006 Z4 Coupe CSL reps, non run flats, B06 gear knob by Buckley, CDV gone. Grom audio, stubby, Bilstein B12 Pro kit.

Still trying to decide on wheels, and more importantly colour. In terms of style I'm looking at the 7 spoke BBS CH-R type, but not exactly. Currently torn between going for the cheaper option of Cades Bern wheels, if I can get them in Hyper Silver, or possibly pushing the boat out a bit and getting Enkei wheels, similar style but slightly nicer design and what you would expect to be a significantly higher quality wheel.

Subjected my Zed to it's first track day. Was my first one to and I'm pleased to say we both survived and I loved it!
Time to contact Number5 about sorting my roof motor which failed earlier in the week.

Bought & fitted one of these little beauties:
Got to be one of the best upgrades out there for a roadster
On removing the centre console ashtray found that one had been fitted by a previous owner but had been removed for some reason. Made fitting a new one easier though as the wiring had already been tapped into. A proper soldering job too . Works a treat.Got to be one of the best upgrades out there for a roadster

Lovely looking thing, but I think Hyper Silver is going to win out against black, I love how much it pops.philbo909 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 21, 2018 3:29 pmIMG_20170710_202041_235.jpgmjennings23 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 10:59 pm Still trying to decide on wheels, and more importantly colour.

On a side note, been looking online and it seems american tyre and wheel sellers tireshop.com have a 'preview' option on their site... so do we like?
Absolutely think these Enkei wheels are leading the way, known to be incredibly high quality, most would say above any cast OEM alternative, and around 20% a wheel lighter than factory 18s. Would love BBS but genuinely couldn't justify the extra on top of another top brand.

And Yeh in hindsight dropping a grand on wheels was a bit much, but you get what you pay for! No experience with Enkei, but buy whatever you like look of

Finally fitted Bilstein B8s on the back of my Coupe - did the fronts ages ago. Both factory struts were knackered.

Nice work. Always been too scared to try it. Have a small but deepish scratch on the rear bumper

Got rid of the m359s. We're never keen on 18s on those style of wheels. Got some 108s in exchange
Much happier. These have to be one of the nicest oem wheels for the zed
