OP, your car wouldn't suit me - but it's your car so as long as you like it that's fine! :thumbsup:

BTW I do like the sound of Purple Silk - there are loads of silver Zs already!

No probs mate, I've got my daily e46 like you so it's all good I rarely use the z4 now I've had my use out of it over the last year, purely a show car now :)

Yeah I hate silver too hence wanting a change lol
 
Nice Zed! That's some impressive mileage!
I'm kind of the same, very much used to the M54 engine. Also never did a facelift SMG...
Also like the progression of the wheels, picture by picture :thumbsup:

thanks mate, i love the M54's charachteristics, dont get me wrong i miss the extra power of the N52, but it seems quite fragile in comparison
 
Some great pics J, and the wheels are proper sweet. I'm not a fan of purple at all and seen too many purple cars so for me it would have to be the bright yellow - you'll probably change it anyway the following week you've had it done. :rofl:

Headlights were a good swap but wonder if you'll still want the all silver after you have had the respray?

cheers Dan, nah its something ive been considering for a while n hence a spray not a wrap, i need to be 100 percent on the colour first.

I love the lights, im not really a fan of aftermarket lights in honesty, can always tint these or lamin-x them if it doesnt work with the new colour :driving:
 
purple silk, yes please.. I want it on my z4 coupe so much! but I bet it's £2500+ to get it done properly. :?

I went off silver after my 123d. It was silver with black and I had it 6 and a half years, so when I got my Z4 I basically wanted any other colour! :lol:

Which is why my current Z4 is Montego Blue and my E46 is Imola Red - actual colours! :rofl:

Looking forward to seeing what you go for. :thumbsup:

Know what you mean fella, my last 3 e46 coupes have all been sapphire black too so im stuck in a monochrome life :lol:
 
Jaime,
No less than 25 E46's, if your not doing a bit of buying and selling that's quite impressive! Do you get bored easily?
I guess you must be the Mr Wilks of the E46 world, your even challenging him on the wheel front these days!😂

i get bored easily :oops: i have owned e46's for well over 10 years now though.

I only tend to buy BMWs - i am only on my 5th Z4 though so got a bit of catching up on the Z4 front.


OOh an unexpected update - just bought a lotus white(?) full interior for this with door cards, its being couriered as we speak - looking forward to break the black cabin up a bit :thumbsup:

had to do a double-take there Jamie, thought for a second you'd bought a white Lotus :D
 
I'd never heard of JOM before this thread, just done a quick Google and they seem to have surprising good reviews especially considering their price point. Interesting that you used e46 ones but which ones did you go for, seems to be 5 or 6 options depending on e46 model. given the differing kerb weights for E46's over E85s I guess you need to choose wisely. these could be a great option for e85/6 owners on a budget but can you get them to adjust to a ride height similar to eibachs etc.
