What have you done to your car today?

So my refurbed wheels have been causing vibration in the steering, after having the shop rebalance them twice to no avail, I had a look and they have painted the mating face with the hub :headbang:

I don't know how a company that specialises in painting wheels doesn't know that you should never paint the bloody mating surface of them, or just can't be arsed using 50p stickers to stop paint getting on to it...

Anyway, picking up a flap disk for the grinder on the way home as I don't have any, and will be clearing it all off this week

Fitted my Eibach springs & Bilstein B4s.........................been a busy day :D

I like it, love the aesthetics and it's not bone jarringly harsh................not had chance for an alignment yet so that will be the next job. :thumbsup:
 
Fitted my GruppeM intake which just arrived from Japan....then went for a spirited drive to test it out.

Fitted my new front badge. Whilst at it, polished around the grilles and cleaned the grilles and the intake area.
 
Booked the zed it for a powerflow back box. The guy at the centre kept trying to get me to have straight pipes, he reckons they sound amazing on Z4's.
Thing everyone on my street would kill me though.

Has anyone already got one?
