My 2006 Z4 3.0Si Supercharged, new updates

[Newbers]

I little teaser of the colour for the first time outside

I have to compliment you on what you've done here but most particularly the colour. IMO BMW very seldom get their greys right. My car is Sterling Grey and it's never struck me as being special.

Your colour works beautifully with the seats too!

 

[Clubber]

Yes of course I will do some poping colours

Orange had been really perfect, but my red interior do not match it. So the colour has to be red

I have the Bmw performance front brakes. I'm planing to do the colour change on them. It will be the new Ferrari 488 gtb colour. Rosso corsa metallic. Will also add some carbon fibre with red pinstriping

You've got a great taste. No doubt those would look great too. Looking forward to your updates.

Here's my supercharger kit. I have to do a test fit soon :evil:

Is there something more you can tell me about this supercharger kit? I can't find it on their website?

Thanks! My last E85 was Sterling grey. Very nice colour, but nothing special as you say. This colour is more special in real life than it looks on these pics. I will get some better pics taken with a good camera as soon I have done some more mods

Do you need some serious mechanic skill to install the supercharger by yourself?

 

[bmwZ]

No, it's not that hard. You get an instruction manual as well

It's possible to install the new software at home as well. It includes a PC software and a cable for easy software and trouble shooting

Anyway I will do a dynorun when it is installed. I really want to see that it get the right fuel mix

 

[StigJ]

Do a dyno run before also.

 

[Marlon]

The teaser looks great, looking forward to seeing more photos close up.

Finally some decents Pictures of the Z

This is how it looks at this stage of modding it, more to come

The colour it`s a little bit darker at the pics than in real life :|













Full leather nappa doorcards


Any one else that have this special leather texture?


When I got it five months ago

 

[JonBooth]

The car is looking great... I have exactly the same seats and door cards in my Z, yours is the only other car I have seem them in with the patterned leather section and the full leather doorcards.

Cheers,

Jon.

My newest mod: Alcantara headliner

Have done some alcantara work over the years. But not as big and difficult as this.

I used original alcantara in colour shade 9002

The A and B pillars was pretty easy and simular to what I have done before.

The roof section was hard and took a lot of work to be perfect.

I had to split it in three sections because of the curved shapes of the headliner

It is hard to make good pics in day light

Sunvisor will have to be retrimmed, so will do that later with my steeringwheel

Never seen a alcantara headliner on a Z4 Coupe, was it possible to get as an option?

 

[-Tom-]

This is up there with debsesd's zed in my eyes. This just looks class and plain evil, a modern day spin on the Z4 e86!!

 

[Simn]

Damn.

 

[Clubber]

Keeps getting better every day !

 

[ben g]

How comes you have grey/beige coloured sunvisors? Mine are black and I thought all Z4's had the same, apart from the ones with extended leather.

 

[z4pilot]

Presumably it's an SE as they had the paler headlining and (I guess) sunvisors to match?

 

[John002]

Wish I had the money, time and skill to do any of this. Be great to see a few Zeds in different rare colours together too.

 

[stuartC]

Wowsers, that looks such a nice car. Love the colour scheme & the alcantera stuff. Well played

 

[Marlon]

Car looks great, you aint gonna see another one like it
