M front bumper is on

This is how it looks at this stage of mods done to it, more to come

The colour it`s a little bit darker at the pics than in real life













Full leather nappa doorcards


Any one else that have this special leather texture?

Looks great so far...

Nice! Are you going to tint/smoke the rear lights a bit? Wouldn´t look too bad imo.

It's nice looking and well done, but a lot of M for not being an M. I assume an M might even cost less than a 3.0si with all those parts and efforts. I like individually tuned cars if they're looking creative and unique in the end. Of course the colour and some details are decent, but the overall looks stays just like a simple M. Maybe the engine is better basis for turbo charged tuning than the S54, not sure.

Nicke car!

And I'm sorry for my bad English.

This part is standard for the option "Leather New England" for BMW-AG E85/86.

The supercharger system is very interesting. But what's about a limited slip differential (LSD)?

I like the tail lights even though not street legal...

Thanks:)

They are allready coloured red, think smoking them will be a bit too much. Will be more red parts to the car soon, so then it will look ok.

Yes, I hear this every time I modding a car. First: I think it is wrong messing with a original M car. Second: This one is 150kg lighter than a Z4M. Third: The taxes in Norway is crazy on big engines with high Co2 emisions. A 3.0Si costing 30 000 Euros, Z4M costing 50 000 Euros. Firth: I'm not finished yet

Ok, that is the nappa leather option, isn't it?

Yes, a quaife LSD will be on my mod list. Maby in spring time, since the car will be sitting in the garage all winter.

Afaik is "New England" Nappa-leather.

I've got a Quaife too, but without supercharger. But will the Quaife work with such more power? Do you know any details?

Ok, thanks

How is the difference with the LSD? I think it will handle it, can't see why. These are strong parts:)

As far as Dieter has a quaife in his Z8 - I guess, it should be able to handle more than 400hp ;-)

In this and the following post I wrote about it. I'm sorry but my english is too bad for a translation.

I'm not sure how strong the Quaife-parts are.

I thougt that Quaife got different types of LSD for the various differentiales with single part numbers/IDs.

Absolutely stunning!!!

please keep us on Track with your modding

Performance doesn't matter that much, does it? It's rather torque-limited I'd say.

true, but I hadn´t the right torque details in mind and all i wanted to mention is, that it shouldn´t be a problem based on the given information ;-)

 

[ZZZZPhips]

Ok, didn't "want to come you deppat" haha

 

[orsini7]

It absolutely amazing what you are doing. I've a really beautiful QP, but now it's looking boring compared to yours!

Keep on posting your modding progress!!!

Alcantara headliner mod:

Have done some alcantara work over the years. But not as big and difficult as this.

I used original alcantara in colour shade 9002

The A and B pillars was pretty easy and simular to what I have done before.

The roof section was hard and took a lot of work to be perfect.

I had to split it in three sections because of the curved shapes of the headliner

It is hard to make good pics in day light

Sunvisor will have to be retrimmed, so will do that later with my steeringwheel :)

Never seen a alcantara headliner on a Z4 Coupe, was it possible to get as an option?

 

[BmwZ]

Bought me some small, but nice parts

My Z looks like an Z4M now, but I don`t want the M badges. So have sold the M steering wheel trim to StigJ on this forum. Then bought me some Individual parts

A little mod to the ZHP gir knob

Very nice! [emoji3] Do you have a part number for the black plate on the shift knob? Did you have to glue it on?

Thanks! The black plate is from my old original gear knob. It is not glued, it is an perfect tight fit that holds it on:)
