I'm sure someone has a link. I saw it once but don't have it

AWBimmer · 02-16-2013, 11:08 AM

Quick Update.. I'm taking her for a spin !! Woooooooo!! Finally

Woody80 · 02-16-2013, 11:16 AM

Enjoy!

AWBimmer · 02-16-2013, 12:26 PM

Man oh mannnnnn did I miss her... spirited drive today after many weeks and she just keeps on going! Even when I think enough is enough, must slow down.. she's roaring to go... I definitely missed her!

AWBimmer · 02-16-2013, 05:20 PM

Moar Pics!

When I bought the M3 wheel and I installed it, I was in split minds about which trim to go with.. M3 one or the Black High Gloss one (to match my interior). I decided to ditch the M3 one and stick with my gloss black trim. Firstly it's not so common and secondly, I prefer it.

The wheel has truly transformed the feel of the car!

Here are a couple of extra pics of the wheel trims, the new gear + gaitor and the AEs

Again, apologies for poor quality pics!

Once again, thanks to Ian (Hotcoupe) for the tyres at such short notice

It's Saturday. I'm always in my trackies - yes Red! It's a colour to be had

Although admittantly, I need new ones since these are getting abused!

AdamC · 02-17-2013, 03:27 AM

Looking good! It's a great feeling to come back to a car when you've been without it for a few weeks.

Drop me a PM if you want to sell the M3 steering wheel surround.

Yep gloss definitely better for your interior. Looks like a nice place to be in!

Ah I love it, off for another spin

too hot · 02-17-2013, 11:35 AM

Looking good is your interior trim gloss black or have you painted it or wrapped it ??
Makes me want to keep mine but the pull of an M3 is greater at the moment!!

This one is gloss black from the factory

I read your thread about the M3 today! Interesting for sure dude! Hard one as well!! If I could afford it, I'd be all over that bro! Be warned, the mods are VERY expensive on those beasts and potential in limitless so prepare for a lighter wallet!!

If you asked me personally, I'd have my 335D as a Daily Drive and an e24 650csi for a weekend toy. Hopefully in a couple of years, I'll be able to do that. Then I can go crazy a little crazy on the mods as the inital cost of the car won't be so steep!!

This was the biggest PITA! No WD40 / Tar remover was going to get this off. I gave up after almost 40 mins of using chemicals and went back to the hair drier.. took 20 mins and came off with some agitation but well worth the trouble! I love the clean back look now.

No not remapped. Up until this weekend I've had RFTs all round so would not have made any sense. Now that I have rear std tyres, I'm more inclined to get one.

I will definitely get one, just keep pushing back on it...map will come at the final stages since I'm spending to sort the car out on other aspects
