From Mangowalk's Ebay store http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350175849447 . There's a thread going in the General Z4 section with regard to Mangowalk, I'm very happy with the subtle improvements so far - hasn't cost much either!

Looking good fella! I was thinking of debadging my Z but wasn't sure how it would look. Yours looks smart, the thing about that is I know I have a 2.2 and I am not ashamed but I know some people who drive 318's debadge it so people don't know its a 318 and I don't want it to be like that!

Cheers Ricey, yeah I know what you mean. I did it becasue I think it looks much cleaner/less fussy at the front. Don't think I'll take the Z4 off the boot, I quite like that one. If you think it'll improve the appearance of your car just do it! Who cares what others think.

It was a lot less hassle than I was expecting to be honest - not often I say that about cars! :chicken:

A couple for more mods carried out today, retro fit cruise and also clear 3rd brake light. Both were so easy to today, I'd say less than an hour in total and that includes the time with the Dremel on the steering cowling.

Ordered the cup holders when I was in BMW picking up these bits - there's a job for Saturday morning!

Anyway, a few quick pics:
