My ride

Hi

Been browsing the forum for a while now and got some cool fanatics stickers from Arbee.

Thanks Arbee for the great service.

Nice meeting you. I knew you had arrived as my admin lady walked in saying a smart BMW just drove in. :roflol:

Great looking car. Hope to see you at events.

 

[BeemerFanatic]

Thanks man.
Tell that admin lady good taste in cars. HAHAH

Update:

Got some m performance rocker panel vinyls from CF Accessories, thanks Des.

Also gloss blacked the windows surrounds.

H& R Super sport 45mm drop now settled. Pics dont do justice. No finger gap(top of tyre to wheel arch) at the back and 1 finger gap in the front.

Think i should put some spacers but dont want the tyres to rub against the wheel arches.

Comments and Suggestions welcome.

love it.

what did you use for glossy window surround?

 

[BeemerFanatic]

Thanks

Gloss black vinyl.

Also did a small sound upgrade. Added 2 x 10" subs and mono block amp.

Really powerful subs, makes the standard system sound so much better. Just need to find a way to get more pressure into the cabin as my back seat /armrest is sealed and so is the back board.

Beautiful car :clapper:

Look into cutting a port or two into the rear parcel shelf.

 

[BeemerFanatic]

Thanks, Will look into that, but would have to have an 'almost factory' look to it.

Is there any way to cut through the back seat/armrest?

Do you have an arm rest at the rear (ie small portion of the centre of the rear seat folds down), exposing the metal sheet that separates the boot from the cabin? If so, you can add ports to that metal sheet, or even add a woofer that fires directly through that port, once to make a cut out. It should be sufficient. Search "BMW Skii pass audio install" or similar. It's well documented, with a number of different options to adapt to your preference :coolshake:

You*

Thanks

Yes i do have an arrest, that would be the neatest/hidden way.

Just a small update. I did a DIY decals this weekend.
Wasn't too difficult considering i have never done this before.

Just need to use a heatgun / hairdryer next time for the creases/bubbles.
Mind the cellphone pics and dusty car,

Been a while since I updated.

Recently sold my 19” 435i wheels to NemoJhb. Great guy and very nice meeting a fellow fanatic.

Bought a new set from Shaheen at the Wheel Shop, as always great service from Shaheen and his guys!

Here’s a pic I took with my new wheels. I tried to DIY the white lettering/paint. Will need to redo it.
