I found it a nightmare getting the first one off mate, just couldn't get the bottom clips unlatched, so many times i almost gave up. 2nd one is a breeze.

It helps to have two people, especially for the first one.

Nice looking wheels! Can't wait to see them on the car!

Pyrat 2 · 05-31-2016, 04:24 PM

Removed wheels, cleaned, sealed, and reinstalled yesterday.

hellokitty · 06-01-2016, 01:00 PM

In 😉

Robin_NL · 06-01-2016, 04:24 PM

I drove it. I hit 5500rpm once and it's fast. It feels faster already than my 1M.
Also at 120mph it's quiet enough. Relatively spoken.

295km(185 miles) on it and the gaslight is already on lol.

Cheers
Robin

Pyrat 2 · 06-01-2016, 04:53 PM

Ordered some Carbotechs for my next track day.

atxsk8r · 06-07-2016, 09:36 PM

Programmed rear view mirror for the garage door, woohoo! It was harder work than installing the grilles lol

F87LUV · 06-07-2016, 09:40 PM

Dumb question, I went to swap my indicator bulbs and to my surprise, I couldn't access the actual housing. Do I need to remove those silver plates to get to the back of the headlamp assembly?? My z4s didn't have that.

OrangeCrush · 06-07-2016, 09:47 PM

Installed M performance cf interior bits. Semi DIY installation instructions coming soon.

Did they unlock the overboost functionality? How does it feel? Does the exhaust sound "awesomer" because of it?
