I am a 32yr old aviation enthusiast which works in the ATC, the Z4 is my second car (first is '08 e90 325iA) which was bought jus for sheer pleasure of driving. So, here it is ... almost finished

In the basement there is a set of BBS CH 8.5x19 and 9.5X19 waiting for the spring to come, currently I am waiting some parts to arrive to install the Professional navigation system. Pictures of the progress and maybe even some DIYs will follow...

Have a nice day, Saso
 
Welcome... looks good! I like that colour- don't see too many around here. Those 108s look in good condition, did you refurb those too?

Reminds me... must get rid of the badges next to the indicator!

Color is somewhat special and quite rare - a majority of them are silver, grey and black. I must say that I wasn't impressed with the color at first...

108s are just clean, there is some corrosion but not too much. I plan to take them apart in winter, fresh paint the centres in a nice shiny new color, polish the bolts and polish the outer rim parts. This should do the trick.

... the car has been completely repainted with two clear coats on top, it needs to be wet-sanded and professionally polished (altough the job is superbly done and it looks as is already is very nice), then the brand new badges next to indicators will be put on. I just find the Zed with no chrome on the sides a bit dull...

I decided to join the forum since I've found a lot of useful information here browsing some time ago... and would like to contribute of course. Since I am speaking generally - I would like to appologize for not-so-smart approach in Buy & Sell section of the Forum, and for my english - I am not native speaker that's why it is far from beeing perfect. I hope that you won't have a lot of problems reading me and seeing the mistakes I've alredy typed and the mistakes I inevitably will.

Have a nice day, Saso

Really?!

If I get round to taking mine off I'll let you know... assuming you haven't bought any by then!
 
Welcome aboard :thumbsup:

The only other Maldives I have seen are from Jules75 and Monadh. Monadh has a hardtop on it as well.
 
... 108s are finally refurbished

Centres have a fresh coat of paint, screws and rim edges were polished. I am happy with the result...

I'll try to post some nicer looking pictures.

It took me some time, but she was finally polished with a Kestrel DA and Menzerna pads and polish.

After that she was treated with Poorboys white diamond glaze for some extra shine and deep color, wiped off and waxed with Colinite 476s. Now this is some great wax :)

I am waiting for the first snow to fall, then to a warm and dry garage to wait for the spring to come :driving:

Have a nice day, Saso
