Finally on guys..... Reeaalllyy pleased!!!! I Spent the best part of 3 hrs aligning this bugger and in emd got it near as damnit, the paasenger top edge at the front is litterally a microscopic amount higher, despite everywhere else being bang on...........Very pleased however and i think the car looks pretty awesome, i ill be painting the a pillars, mirrors, front bumper middle section, and adding alpina rear spoiler with a black pinstripe on the leading edge...... i understand this is not to everyones flavour but then again.... my car is blasphemy to lots of ///M fanatics already being substantially modded from how the ///M division intended. Bi-colour z4m.......

I like it, but I think it would look better if the hardtop wasn't shiny a la:

oww s**t... youve ruined it for me :? :x :| i agree with you however... i does however look much better in the flesh compared to these pics, i drew inspiration from the 458 bi-colour that is saw recently, couple that with a top that came up wayy to cheap to say no i decided to try it out..... i will post some better pics once the other bits have been painted....FYI Simpson motorsport brought the unit next door and now offer paint!!! apparently the guy that painted ascari's or something...
 
cheers guys, im going to spend more time trying to get fitment perfect..... ive still got this micro-scopic gap passenger top side corner, i can slip a business card through the gap so tomorrow ill try again, Phil sent me some instructions, and his own photo graphic guide which is really helpful but his guide shows 5mm at the REAR edge, yet the bmw PDF seems to show a linear 5mm on the bottom complete edge, i dont want this thing rubbing on my paintwork so, ill take my time till i get it right, needless to say i got rather frustrated...... tomorrow i will loosen the side to side movement also and try this also..... a bit of a ball-ache if im honest.....
