How's that working out for you? I really liked the look of it (seems like the best featured audio accessory), but the price is very much on the steep side, especially with our dollar down right now.
 
Right this might take a while and be edit a bit as i remember more..

Interior
Gear knob
handbrake handle
radio knobs
blue floor mats (to match the paint :rofl: )
Flat bottom steering wheel (in progress)
M style seats (in progress)
Shims and the front of the seat rail to add height at the front. It helped me get more comfortable.
Soon to come... Body colour coordinated bits to match the paint work.

Exterior
DIY front bumper
blacked out kidneys
angle eyes in fog lights
Personal cut down number plates
DIY Side skirts
aero rear bumper
DIY spoiler
Full re spray
stubby
french fry removal
Personalized side indicator badges
De badged
M3 E46 19 alloys costume machined to fit
Rear wheel arches rolled to help fit wheels.

Suspension
Spax rsx coilovers
M3 ARB
Poly bushed ARB
New tie rod ends
New lower arms
Polly bushed Lollipops
Polly bushed rear ARB
DIY RTAB limiting kit plus new bushes

Drive line
New gear box oil (cant remember what i brought in the end) But one of the recommended upgraded brands.
M factor LSD + new oil and change at about 500 miles
New bushes in rear axle carrier and diff bushings
All parts where sanded rust removed and treated then re painted. And new bolts used where needed.
CDV delete

Brakes
New M tech grooved discs
Standard pads
To come soon
Hopefully a DIY BBK kit soon
New lines front to back
Bias valve and hydro hand brake

Exhaust
Made my own straight through system from midway back. Splitting into a true quad.
Future plans to make a new system designed for the Turbo conversion if i do it!! A Monkey made manifold collecting into a single 3" pipe straight into a turbo mounted at the rear of the car.

Engine
Just oil changes really
Fixed upgraded DISA valve
K&N induction cone filter (still to make a heat shield for that!!

Thats about it for now. Lots of plans hopefully for the future i just need more time and money!!
 
I just want Matt's rear spoiler for my roadster.

:D

However; it's already sporting an aux cable and 10mm spacers all around, as well as upgraded engine and battery earth straps.

Works excellent.
If you have navi professional it reads the mp3 tags in the screen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0nEePxhKT0
You can hop individual folders foreward and backwards.
It doesnt show the complete folder structure though (I think none of these solutions can do that).
Basically you can put folders&subfolders in 6 main folders in the root of an SD card (those main folders are cd1-6 on the changer buttons).
Within such a folder you can skip to the next or previous folder, where it reads the first song and displays track, artist and album. (and obviously you can skip track).
It's reliable, fast and has very good sound. It only reads SD cards.
So I have a 32GB card (or 64, dont remember) with basically all my mp3's where mainfolder 1 is artist A-D folder 2 is artist E-G (you get the point).
It's indeed one of the more expensive ones, but it works very well. A lot of the comparable ones (like grom interfaces etc) have problems with getting the id3 tags in the screen. But this company has given a lot of firmware support in the beginning to solve those kinds of problems. I've had it now for 5 years I think (I was a pretty early user) and still like it.

If you want to go full folder structure etc, the best thing to do is to get a raspberri Pi with Pibus hifi interface and run a multimedia operating system like XMBC. But that also requires a TV in or an (expensive) vga multiplexer. And quite a bit of tinkering. This is probably my next step.
