Hi "again",
I feel a re-introduction opposes,
so i joined a few years back, looking to buy a Z4 e85, but ended up going for a mk5 golf gti (i think i fancied the turbo and practicality), i've still got the golf and it's not all that bad
I also have a KTM duke 4 690, that is being sold to pay for the Z4 :roll: (love the bike, but french drivers are nuts, and don't fancy sliding down the road on my face because some old farmer had a bit to much of the red stuff over lunch...)
So, wanting to have some form of a vehicle with 4 wheels on the ground, but something fun, i thought why not get a roadster... Hesitated a bit with the TT 225 (almost bought one), but then said F**k it, go for the 3.0l Z4 8) !!
So me being in France (
) (i am an ex-pat by the way), and with the price of a LHD extremely expensive over here, i bought one in the UK (wich my mum is going to bring down for me at the end of the month!!!), and i cannot wait to get in it and take her for a spin 
!
So of course, like everyone on here almost, i want to do some mods :evil:
from what i hear, it's already got the Gaptech module
, and some sort of a cone filter under the bonnet (havn't got a clue yet wich one), but i think that's about it..
Here's my list of bit's i'm planning on doing:
First the pug stubby (thanks to the forum i got that 11€ from the dealer)
I've just bought a pair of LHD rear lights so i'll have a symetrical rear end
(85€ second hand), i also plan to tint the orange cercle's dark either with fly eye stuff or something else ? i'd love to have them clear aswell but can't justify spending a huge amount just to have them clear !
De-ginger the rest (side indicators + headlights), is it best just to get clear side indicators straight from BMW?
Headlights, i'm going to need LHD ones anyways, so probably just go for the aftermarket AE's, but unsure about halogen or HID ? HELP
Painting the calipers red... The car is black, so i think it could look quite nice
Original looking boot spoiler : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Boot-spoiler-BMW-Z4-E85-/251294342172?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3a824f5c1c ! need some advice, or knowledge of someone that's already done it? how easy? or just get the bodyshop to do it ? I really think it make's the arse end look great
I think that's about it for the moment, i'd love to do an interior mod, but i think it's going to cost a bomb... I'd love red seats, but hard to find, and expensive ! Thought about replacement seat covers...? anyone done this ?
I'm trying to post a photo... Bit of a noob when it come's to forum's... just made a photo bucket account, hope that link works
