Z4 Pics-With Stripes

[Coisman]

Jerez, did you get allot of hidings when you were younger??

reason I'm asking is, cause I did. And after every hiding, I would have some racing stripes running across my @ss, from where I got hit.
I would then admire these stripes, and vowed, that one day, my car would have stripes, as to remind me of all my hidings I got when I was young, thus helping me cope with the trauma of the experience... :fencelook:

Lol... Incidentally , me, my headmaster and his cane had a special relationship . Lol- u taking me back a few years now.

Ok, for that reason alone... I will say no more

:biglol: was your headmaster perhaps a woman?? :fencelook:

I honestly expected that it wouldn't appeal to everyone.
So quite frankly I've been expecting you.
Nothing wrong with being straight forward Jerez.

If nothing else it's different and that appeals to me.
Been on here for months and haven't seen anything like it.

Love the off centre stripe as well but went for something a little more in your face.

Appreciate the feedback either way.

This looks stunning Coisman
Unique. First time I've seen anything like it.
Pic is going in my BMW Album.
Very Nice.

So. Gave Plastidip Smoke a Bash on the tailights and had some tail pipes fitted.
Tomorrow going for some 19 inch new shoes.
(As suggested)

I think I like the smoke plasti dip. In fact, I have a can of it, just waiting to go onto the taillights. How many coats did you do?

How did it affect the brightness of the lights?

 

[OppositeLockMT]

Can't wait to see the results. Scottish flag?

I used the full can.
The Matt black can be deceptive. It looks opaque but is completely transparent.
Was sweating buckets until I tested the light and was absolutely thrilled at the result.
I don't know how it works but all colours are clear and distinct.
Hang on.
I'll go out in my undies and take a pic for you.
Damn car is gonna give me pneumonia.

It signifies a Scottish person is driving. Lol.

Pictures at night with both hazards and tail lights on.

I knew that :fencelook:

 

[Johnny8Bit]

You really need to be careful with stripes, it doesn't work on most cars. Yours has turned out pretty good I must say. Pics with the big wheels on are a must now!

On a Ford Focus ST, stripes add about 20Kw. You should get your car on a dyno to be sure. :fencelook:

What he said..

 

[Riaan335]

Thanks Fraser. Hope you don't get pneumonia :biglol:

Think I'm gonna do mine tomorrow then.

 

[sherwinZ]

Hmm not too keen on the stripes..

But as you said if it appeals to you and you happy :thumbs:

lolz, as a Cooper S owner I can quite comfortably afford a "real" BMW, so careful with such comments. :rollsmile:

No offence. Was just taking the piss.
Wouldn't mind one of the new Coupes myself.

I almost whipped out a lunch bar and declared "now you've ruined the friendship"

So I wasn't able to get decent photos taken today. Will try again tomorrow but have a couple of teasers.
Is it just me or does every feel 12 when the pull those mags out of the boxes and unwrap them?
And then that part where they roll those tyres across the workshop to get fitted.
Pig in Shit.

The Prep leading up to fitment




Some teasers pics:






Best I can do for now.
