The zed has just ticked 60k miles while out today in the Yorkshire Dales, so a quick maintenance wash before putting it back into the garage
Changed to a 2.5 Zed

You'll have to let me know how much of a difference that makes

Yorkshire Dales sounds excellent. It is in my list of places to visit with Zed. Must have been a nice drive!
Car looks very nice. I like the look of those red break calipers!

The Dales are right on my doorstep well outside my window which have some of the best driving roads in the country.
The brake callipers are incredibly easy to do

Off eBay OEM parts £94, expensive I know but worth it.
I looked at some generic ones but they just didn't look right and frankly look cheap

That looks absolutely Superb! Money well spend I would say. 
How does one search for these parts?

Between jobs this evening I managed to start the first of three stage machine correction. Bloody shattered
What ever you are looking for I always search eBay first so for those I entered BMW Z4 exhaust tips

I am really thinking about buying these.
This may be a stupid question, but how is the installation done for those? Is it easy?

I sprayed my exhaust tips with a bit of WD40 and then pushed/tapped it on. 2 minute job.

Few more updates today.
Took the kidney grills out this evening as this has always bothered and me and let the front of the car down so masked up and gave it 4 coats of satin black from a rattle can:
Before
After
While I was in the spirit of painting the front registration mount has annoyed that no trim restorer could improve it so with the same rattle can I gave it 5 coats
3/4 of the car has now been machine corrected with three stages. These photos have not been harmed with photoshop, that gloss is real.
Parked it outside the garage for 10minutes.....the joys of living in the countryside.
