Hi all

Haven't been on the forum in ages but I bought the last few bit from users on here so thank you - you know who you are!!

Have been on a few road trips also and all I can say is this car is so much fun to drive. It handles extremely well and the straight six 2.5 mated with the manual is a very pure and "joyful" driving experience. Love this car..

Mods updated

BCR coilovers
e9x Front brembo BBK - both F+R painted red
interior trim painted black with red flake
H+R ARBs F+R
Engine sway bar
colour change LEDs - video can be seen on my instagram @need_for _theivz
red extended bolts for studs

This is a little video from the last road trip. We went to a closed airfield in Ireland Enniskellen. This was one of my laps on a rally type stage. Sorry about the terrible crashing noises - car was loaded with bags / water bottles etc and rear suspension needed some tweaking..

Thanks all

They calibre gtr rims from Mark at bmautosport. Ive had them powder coated cream. My old tourer had oyster nappa cream leather so matched but seems to work well with the z4. Offsets etc same from e91 to e89 :oops:

Hiltonfa has the same ones :thumbsup:

Have you got any more shots of your rear bumper/exhaust. Looks a very unique set up - almost a Lexus ISF tribute :thumbsup:
