Ooo that nice looking facelift Soarer in stock spec at the start of your clip.

Car sounds epic. Can't beat a hardcore NA engine revving like that! I like your driving line, shift and throttle control too - looks like you know how to have a good time!

:D

Serious question, where did you get the wing from... ? A certain race car build may be after something similar.

PS if your ever after the proper BMW font for any graphic work ... give me a yell I have the whole set. Same as the one in my sig.

Updates! I've ordered carbon fiber replacements for the interior door handles (front & rear). This is the last of the oem trim I have yet to replace with carbon fiber, so I'm pretty excited to see what it'll look like. Pics once the parts arrive & I fit them up.

I also ordered a carbon fiber ashtray cover - can't find any pics online but it's this bit here:

Glorious carbon fiber has arrived :o I'm so glad I chose to save a bit longer so I could afford matching front & rear armrests. This'll complete my interior conversion to cf.

The car is currently in many bits in our showroom. I hope to get an hour or two over the next few days to start fitting it up. I've taken the opportunity to strip the leather coating from the seats & plastic coating from the panels and give them both a deep clean.

Here's the ashtray cover:

Detailed the engine bay & bonnet heat shield a little while ago, was well overdue

Wing painted & mounted in time for the rally next weekend. Still need to put new M3 badges on, polish & CQuartz. Went with half-painted leaving the bare carbon underneath.

Hmmm, I don't think they work on an E46.

Other ones are much more fitting for the cars shape / vintage.
