It's a wire coat hanger cut to size of my portfolio case around my iPad and then using the dash piece I took some pliers and twisted the edges inward to hook onto the dash so it would fall out.

Here's my post for visuals. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=797255

Thanks, the powdercoat started to rub off and they are now powder coated gloss black, shine a bit more than the older pictures I have up.

Updated my pics Jonny but thanks it's changed like crazy!

It's on the side of a bar over by Golden Gardens...forgot the street name lol

Taran.J · 06-13-2013, 07:15 PM

Here are some iPhone shots of where I'm at with the car. Redid my interior with some red accents, Removed CF hood wrap and repainted hood, M3 front, poly side skirt lips, powder coated wheels from matte black to gloss black.

To come another V style M3 lip as my first one is somewhere on I-5 by Portland.

For what functions do you use the iPad? Can you quickly and easily remove the iPad for security purposes. I could never leave that up when my car is parked!

iPad is used mainly for music and navigation in car. I'm a property manager and own my own motels/hotels so I need it with me right as I hop out of my car for emails and other notes. It's hung on there with a portfolio case so you just lift it up and be on your way.

Wedge1967 · 06-14-2013, 10:51 PM

Seat? I could've gotten the 335 but I'm afraid of a turbo car for my daily driver. Can't beat that NA diy on the side of the road

Taran.J · 06-18-2013, 12:31 AM

Some shots I had in my 7d for a while...

Awesome build. I love the drop, balances out the car nicely. My stock Xi's height is like a X5's compared to yours.

Appreciate it. Hopefully you can drop the xi unless its your winter beater too in that case I fully understand.
