Love this car bro! Did I see it at gaydon last year?

Yep!

Probably. Neil rarely misses a show, unlike me who's AWOL most of the time.

Jetting around the world! :P If you need someone to babysit your car for you...
 
Bro I'm really digging that splitter! What one is it? I wish I could run one but my bumper pulls off easy enough over bumps as it is!
 
I believe I have the same splitter, reasonable enough quality I would say for the money.

Haven't cracked mine yet, but I steer clear of bumps! :lol:
 
No updates, but it had a clean and a service (Inspection 2 and new brake fluid)

Started with a wash on Sunday...(plate was removed as I was waiting on a new plate holder)

Time to put miles on her now I guess. :)
 
Just read this start to finish! Loving it! A very nice subtle car. Never though the tigerclaws would work so well! I may have missed it, but have you had any archwork?
Also, you sure know how to use a camera dont you?! Feel free to PM me some tips :lol:
 
Somehow I also missed this post. What a great build, looks stunning.
Have a Z4MC myself, lowered with CS wheels and all but that looks kinda boring now I've seen this :wink:

Did you sand/polish it to get rid of the orange peel? Paint looks much better than oem.
 
I think its the best looking car on here. I have a front splitter and lowering springs on standby to give mine a similar look as it looks rather sad in comparison. I'd love the wheels but think the car looks so individual it would be wrong to copy. bugger..

Superb m8.
 
hey Niel,

finally got around to going through the pages...

nice pictures. what camera \ lens you using?

Who refurbished your wheels as i cant find them on the net?
Nice idea about cutting the existing areal - does it need to be removed from the car to do this?

i was looking for a place to refurbish my e60 20" zitto's - in the end gave them to BJV engineering who were the cheapest (as i have 3 sets to do) - stumbled across some bad reviews for Lepsons that every one was telling me to use..but way too expensive!

still got my fingers crossed - as i get them back Monday from BJV!

still need to get the others done

With a very good camera lens I'm guessing ;-)
 
Rene_Z4MC, Thank you. Its yet to still be compounded properly and polished back up. Everything so far is just by hand.

John002, haha, thanks! You're free to run whatever you want on your car! It's yours after all!

SamUK, I removed the aerial for ease, but can't see why it can't be done whilst still on the car.

I had Dips at custom cars refrubish my wheels.

Jonny essex,

Just using a lowly 60D mated to either a 30mm Sigma lens or a 24-105 f/4 Canon.

Jonny, I've been wanted to shoot your car for ages. Before it goes in for boost, let's arrange something?

So it seems that Tiger Claws are now the alternative to the CSL wheels for z4's...I needed a change.

:D

Excuse the filthy car...
