BMW Z4M rear bumper (without rear parking sensor holes - looks cleaner without!) Will fit any Z4M (2006-2008) and as you guys know, can be fitted to your standard Z4 (pre 2009) for that M-car look. This came off my pampered 2007 car (which I've owned almost since new), and was regularly waxed...

I've owned my Z4M for over 5 years now and other fun cars have come and gone but the M has stayed. Embarassingly however, I've never taken the opportunity to learn and fully understand how the suspension works (and thus be able to identify when there are issues). I've got a horrible metal...

I should have known on this forum that I'd get lots of replies but no actual suggestions :P A few messages suggesting I swap for a stock system but I still have that thank you. Anyone with a supersprint or anything else they fancy a swap? I can't be bothered selling mine on eBay and buying...

I have the RPI back boxes in excellent condition, cost me around £1200 new, worth about £600 now I guess as values go on used exhausts. They are *stunning* and loud for town/city driving but I have a long commute now so I need something quieter. Stock is too quiet. Does anyone have SuperSprint...

Want a full paintwork correction ideally - few tiny areas where paint touch up needed. Don't have time to drive more than 10 miles for Birmingham for this so ideally someone close or mobile. Any recommendations?

Questions for those of you who have done anything similar with a BMW. I've followed such a process on a Ferrari 360 on ferrarichat.com so similar principles may exist (i.e. in terms of removing sound deadening), but not having done this on a BMW, various things will be of course be different...

Thanks for your replies. Might try Sport Contact 3 as an alternative to the (older) M3 tyre -...

One thing that lets the Z4M down is the clutch (which I can live with) and suspension that gives a "crashy" ride. I'm not suspension expert and every car I've had has used stock suspension, so I've no idea what I'm looking for in a replacement so I need some advice. It isn't the fact the stock...

Having owned other cars alongside my Z4M including some of the exotic Italian persuasion, I've come to be a big fan of the Pirelli Corsa PZero tyres - a quick look online suggests these aren't available in Z4M size. I've always used Conti Sport M3 on the Z4M but come to the realisation there...

West Midlands - whats the name of the one in Warwick? Any other suggestions?

My Mum managed to open her car door into the front of my bumper (!) - her car was parked sideways in front of mine. Anyway it's created a chip out of the front bumper, only about 5mm wide and 5mm high but 5mm deep also, so I'm guessing it'll need to be filled and the whole front bumper...

My battery is dead from a side light that went out and caused the indicator to remain on CONSTANTLY. RAC came out and battery is totaled (not holding charge) Before I go to Sytner and buy a new battery, is there is cheaper/better place to buy one anyone can recommend?

Well where to start... They appeared to have dented and scratched my car on 2 separate occasions. The service people have been rude - the service manager (!) seemed to suggest I was lying when I found a scratch after they'd fixed the dent. My experiences left me feeling very disappointed. I...

Considering doing this now prices have dropped - a sort of Z4M CSL. I've seen a car on here where seats have been replaced for buckets etc.. Has anyone removed carpets and gone back to bare metal floors (a la Ferrari scuderia) - I'm just wondering if someone has done this, how much sound...
