All sold i wont be making any more. Had a problem with 2 and the anodizing 
Glad you like it makes it worth the bother

Hi Machine Monkey.
Love the cup holder. Been trying figure out a solution since I got my first Z4 a few weeks back. Never realised how much I use a cup holder, until I didn't have one!!
I realise this post is over 2 years old but I was wondering if you were still able to provide a cup holder and if so the price. Thanks.

Same here....do you still make them MM ?
I am sure i can make a few more. Just send me a PM if your interested.
And next time i am over the workshop i will make them up.

They are a little bit adjustable. i can in fact roll them up to almost any diameter.
u reckon u would be able to make it fit top 77mm and bottom 60mm dia shape? or is that being cheeky and pushing my luck? lolMachine monkey said:
by the way, marlon suggested asking where u got those handy wheelstud things from? been struggling for years whacking my winter wheels on and off - would make things a whole heap easier imo!

I can have a go but tapers tend to be a bit tricky. And getting the diameters just right will be very difficult.
Yeah i can make one of them for no problem too.
I cant offer the anodizing as an option anymore as its a minimum order of £50 and thats a lot of cup holders!!
I can spray them black but cant promise the longevity of the finish as its just paint and may chip.
£15 each i will do the second one for £10 thats delivered UK a little more if outside the UK due to postage costs.

Aight top.
Can u do one tapered to fit me old thermo mug if poss and the other normal/straight? In bare metal finish.
U finish the edges too after cutting i presume? My friend lau went ballistic at me cos she snagged a pair of expensive tights in my other beemer one time. I told her she should wear some wellies. I got a smack in the chops for that bit of advice. Lol
Pm me total cost posted to holland (3451hb, Vleuten)
Cheers mat.
Oh...and those wheel pins? Where from?
So I finally got around to installing the groovy cup/bottle-holder that Mat fabbed up for me last September!
Holy guacamole batman! Why the delay? I hear you ask. Well, groovy, fab and handy though it is, I realised it wasn't going to install and sit nicely as intended due to the curvature of the top tab that slips between the plastic trannytunnel trim and the carpet. A small oversight on Mat's part perhaps but I don't hold it against him one bit - he's been a top geezer afaic and has kindly replaced a knicked wheelpin in return for a forum contribution
So in order to get it sorted it was out with a nail hammer and intermediary piece of steel in order to shape the top part flat.
I don't have a vice here in Holland, well, not the sort of vice I would need in this instance anyway (
:lol: :wink: :roll: ) so I had to make do with bashing it til acceptably flat. It's aluminium so easily workable. Sadly however, I'm not the worlds greatest metalworker so the result is a bit rough and ready but at least it fits, sits and functions nicely. Need to stretch the sides a bit more perhaps to accept the BMW beaker but happy with the result....

Carpet could do with a clean Chris!!!
