Coming along nicely, really like the colour!
Looking fwd to seeing the wheels and mirrors, I'm not a fan of the LCI mirrors. A CSL boot lid would be a nice addition. That or an Amuse version..... P.S - I think you might have started something with those skirts, they're just what I've been looking for! |

Just got the car back with Quaife differential, new suspension, bushings & anti roll bars and am absolutely blown away by the difference, particularly the suspension. Miraculously it's not raining and i haven't driven the car hard enough to really test the bars or LSD so i'm going to give it a few days before i post details on how the car has transformed. Even before I've managed to get the stock runflats off though the ride comfort is night&day from what it was with the msport shocks, the car is now much less of a drama queen with rough b-roads & is gliding over roads that once felt like they had canyon-like potholes.

How much did you buy your M3 skirts for and was it from PD or CA? Were yours Reps or OEM and is there a major difference between the two in your experience? Both looks wise and fitment wise? Have contacted both companies so wonder what region I should expect to be paying.... feel free to PM me if you like :-) Cheers |

Nice so far!
The CF bonnet will ruin it though in my opinion... M3 style Mirrors in CF will set it off nicely.
