Gave the car a clean a snapped a few pics

AdamC · 03-04-2014, 10:50 AM

Have had a couple of days off work and as the weather has been half decent I gave the car a good clean.

Snapped a few pics at the local carpark as no doubt the car will be filthy again by the end of the week. Few new bits since the last time I posted. Changed the wheel colour to gunmetal and installed a full m sport interior.

Hope you like.

Hi mate looks great

How would you rate the performance knob over the standard one? Thinking of asking for one for my birthday

In the works at the minute, went to Torque Flow today to enquire but they were too busy.

I love the performance knob, remember my car is an SE though so huge improvement over standard (size, weight etc) not sure how different it would be to an M Sport one.

Sticker is going. All dash trim is being wrapped soon, you can see door trims are already off.

Totally agree with the dash sticker! Get rid!

Wheels looks good that colour!

Great work, get them coilovers fitted!

Reece · 03-04-2014, 12:37 PM

Was just about to say with a nice drop she will look lovely

Ajs_435d · 03-04-2014, 12:38 PM

Looks good fella! Black is nice but that's because it looks similar to my 335d lol

I've got one on mine. I love it.

I agree about the drop, it's the only thing it needs - and it's so cheap and easy!

Here's how mine sits on the standard M-Tech shocks and Eibach pro springs. I can't really go crazy low, as I need to use the car for work, which mostly involves trips to construction sites and down roads that aren't fit for mountain goats, let alone cars.

I'm guessing yours is sat on standard SE suspension at the moment (as that front arch gap looks very familiar!), so here's a a pic of the wife's car which still retains the SE shocks but is also on Eibach pro springs, if that helps:

Looking good. Wheels go very well. Rear looks like it's riding a bit high. Slight drop would be good

When it's clean I love it, shame it doesn't stay that way for long!

Cheers mate. Need to get some headlights from you at some point. Unfortunately going to be a few months yet by the look of things.

Cheers Gaz, I know the wheels are seen as the boring option but they really do suit the car and in the real world I don't see any others around.

Thanks mate. I think the rims you have are really nice tbh. The other reason I got something totally different is because of the wheels on our other car!

Yeah you must have a good looking driveway with the both of them!
Just had a quick look at your Facebook page, what products do you recommend for SBM? Used AG super resin and Poorboys black hole but looking to try something new.

Russbmw · 03-05-2014, 03:18 PM

Depends what you want to do! Drop me an email mate, as it's easier for me to reply on my phone to email than on here!

I don't really rate ag super resin, not when using a machine anyway
