Got one side of this done so far, maybe a bit of a marmite one but wanted to paint them something other than red.

aye was thinking of picking up the 330 upgrade but not sure I can be arsed with it, would be purely a cosmetic upgrade in reality without doing track days and what not it's not like i need it.

might just settle with new discs/pads all round and get the bushes done
 
if you are doing new discs and Pads its worth doing the upgrade as if you search for the callipers for long enough it won't add to much to the build. Great Thred nice to see a 3.0 being brought back to great condition :thumbsup:
 
Detailed with a paint enhancement to get rid of a lot of stonechips/scratches, and finally the dents removed from the wheel arch that have been there since I bought it, had to take the flyeye kit off the headlights as it hadn't stopped them fading in the gaps, so i'm going lamin-x them instead end of the month.

Ram scoop will go in when it arrives, then retreat the roof and try enjoy it this summer
 
just fitted new Bilsteins on mine with new H&R springs :thumbsup:

cars looking good! take some mreo photos once the new bits and bobs have been fitted(altho u cant see many of them from the outside lol)
 
I've kept the original springs that are currently on there, tbh i couldn't hack the car being any lower than it is which is the main reason i haven't changed mine, if i could get aftermarket without lowering i would have.
(likewise those are B4 shocks, maybe should've spring the extra 100 for b6's but was rushing to get them ordered, and read b6's would be stiffer again which i'm happy to do without, ride is harsh enough on the z4 )


my Tyre wear was sorted for me this morning, ironically got not one but two punctures on same side on way to work..
switched the 225 fronts for 235's and got the rears changed as well.

Hankook Ventus S1 Evo2 on all corners, hopefully last me longer than the Pirelli
 
New shocks in and have made a huge difference to ride quality and cornering, ride quality especially.
my drivers side front shock was totally fucked it seems, oil leaked everywhere and might as well not been on the car, so the new shocks front and back have been worth the change.

Off for a week middle of april, hopefully it's dry and the plan will be to re tint the front headlights and do the softtops yearly rivial, clean dye proof then thats me done for a while
 
Supposed to be getting my headlights tinted and wing mirrors carbon wrapped tonight

went out yesterday and my headlights were totally fucked, were completely fine last week no idea what the hell got onto them but no amount of cleaning would shift it, had to quickly take sandpaper and polish to it to sort out for tinting.

Bought some silent coat sound deadning, the noise from the doors always annoyed me me a bit from them removing the proofing, sounded cheap/hollow so installed some behind the trim and inside the panel
