Hey Adam

The eBay link you provided for the Akropivic exhaust tips have expired.

Do you know if these should be fine?:

Yes they look identicle to mine, but I don稚 have a back box, just 2 pieces of pipe so I don稚 know if these will fit on a standard back box if you are running one.

Well done! I'm a big fan of black and red contrasts. Great score with the interior and the I love the black trim; makes me want to consider swapping out my aluminum. I think your car came out great!

Thanks for the good comments, I'm torn on wether or not to wrap the interior trims in alcantara to match the gear and handbrake gaitors.

Damn Adam!! Your E92 is hard.

Great mods and it really looks class. Black is amazing when you have the time/effort to keep the bodywork clean.

I知 the opposite of you. I知 one of the worlds slowest modders. But I usually keep my cars for a while and slowly chip away at it.

Thanks mate, this has been done over 2 years, but now the turbo oil seals are leaking I'm looking at an eye watering repair bill so the mods will pretty much stop until the turbos are swapped for some bigger hybrids.

Just been quoted 」2000 at a bmw specialist just to remove and refit the turbos! I nearly fainted at that!
Pure are doing a Black Friday deal at the minute so works out at 15% off which is quite a saving to be fair, I値l probably do the turbo swap myself.
