I want my armrest trimming just to make it more comfy on my elbow...little to no padding in that bad boy!

Seats will be awesome! Crying out for a custom retrim in alacantra with orange stitching though

Little update.

Well, they are in, but will need some further mods.

Sorry for poor iphone pics. Will get some better ones up tomorrow as at a local car show, low collective. Love em!



















Love the fact that they are race seats but look almost oem.

Looks lush. They resemble the E46 CSL seats. Love it.

Funny, I thought that. A modern twist to the csl, or I guess similar to the gts.

Not a bad car to base yours on mate. The CSL is one of my favourite cars ever. I'm not a big fan of modding M cars usually but you have a great skill in modding your M3 tastefully. Fantastic car all round!

Such a nice car made even better!

If there was ever a need for one of those "made in Germany refined in England" stickers this is it

Good work mate

Well.... As I found out, no, as I went to clean the residue of my rear windows from removing the tint, and had to climb through the middle.

There plenty of adjustment, so just need to mount them further forward so people can squeeze through if required.

As I said earlier they are in, but need refinement.

Love csls. When I was thinking of selling up the replacement was to be an e46 and do a lightweight csl rep, inc seats, carbon airbox, and carbon roof, but low on squared csl wheels. May do it in the future!

Well, managed to make two show coverages in pbmw mag this month, which was nice.





Bought a cheap e46 m3 on ebay but seller was a bit of a nob so no more m3s added to the fleet!
