Oh hi Suj! Saw your build thread, quite a good job, didn't know that BMR1 plate was on your C63 HAHA (I just realise not much Aussies in my thread, maybe next time I should post in Australian regional forum? lol

)

haha yeah [BMR1] replaced [CSIXT3] plate on the C63 lol...went through 4 different plates in under 2 years on the merc

Aussie section is pretty quiet though so wouldn't really bother.

A'PEXi · 05-21-2014, 12:48 AM

nice work, got anymore photos of the steering wheel?

everything seems to flow together nicely

I'd love to get the bmw performance seats, but I heard they actually end up sitting you higher???

Sorry man seems I missed out your comment before.

Yea the only thing I would complain these stunning racing seats is they are not hight adjustable! However, the Recaro seats per se are low enough, it's actually the bracket that matters. If you are looking for an extremely low seating position, I heard Macht Schnell has a competition floor mount might probably meet your requirement

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind.

THE 100th reply! I got you not one, but a few photos of that steering wheel! Altho it's my first mod, so didn't really pay much attention on it at this photo shoot session. Here are some old photos:

Your car looks absolutely amazing!!!!

Although i have to say, that i am not a big fan of the weird steering wheel. Isn't it a bit too thick?

haha I reckon it's the angle of the pictures makes the steering wheel look extremely over sized, it's same size with regular ones, only a bit thicker than performance steering wheel. And it's ultimately comfortable!

Altho since it's not modified on a M Sports steering wheel, so it doesn't come with pre cut holes for shift paddles, so I kinda drove my car for a few month without them. That really is a bummer.. Until I saw a DIY thread here teach people how to cut shift paddle holes using simple tools, then I tried it myself and finally got paddles back in the game!
