No I'll check out that site. Of course my home forum should be M3cutters but I just can't get into it. Very busy, lots of adverts and they won't install Tapatalk. Lots of good cars and people but also IMO some awful cars and some idiots. Which is why I still lurk around on here :-)

Haha don't blame you, e46 zone was a good crowd when I was on there.

Do you go to the brands hatch Wednesday meets?

Hey James,

I want to do my interior the same as what you have done. Is it difficult to do? I am not a very hands on person... ha ha Always scared I'll break something!

Welcome matey,

Nice looking zed and I have to agree you haven't hung around with the mods but they are looking good.
I quite like the tinted lights it's one of them things you love them or hate them.

I went for a set of springs from FK Automotive in Germany, not sure how low it is yet as its still settling. Ride comfort isn't too bad
 
Springs fitted, only have pictures of the rear as the fronts were a nightmare to fit...

Yeah that would be good, hopefully we can sort something out soon
 
Just a quick update, need to get some better pictures.

Managed to pick up a set of projected lights instead of changing my hockey sticks.
