Space Grey Z4 28i M sport

Hello all,

new to the forum, thought i'd post a dedicated thread to show any progress made over the next few months.

Its a 2012 28i M Sport Auto, 14k miles, 1 previous owner, Full BMW Service History.

Optional Extras included:
- Heated seats
- pro Sat Nav with google maps
- Msport Package
- Electric Seat Adjustment
- enhanced bluetooth package
- 19" Double spoke Alloys

all for a fair £23,000. It's replacing my much loved but horrendously troubled 2014 Clio RS200 EDC, which spent more time in the garage than actually driving it. Don't trust the french with a soldering iron. PICS!







I have some cosmetic alterations in mind like blacking out the bottom bar in the front bumper under the grill, matte charcoal wheel respray and maybe a charcoal vinyl wrap on the roof. I bought some MTEC H8 35w 12v bulbs to replace the factory yellow lights. They were too cheap not to try out, i've seen mixed reviews on the forum but for £13 it's worth a stab and i'll post comparison pic's when they arrive.

As for mechanical mods i don't know where to start. Adjustable H&R springs are my first thought but i do like the quad exhaust setup. i'm only going for your run of the mill mods, nothing drastic. Maybe even Brembos theres just too many decisions.

Anyway if you have tips or suggestions for anything i've mentioned then it would be greatly appreciated.

cheers!,

LJ

I've seen this posted around the forum, looks incredible. Is this yours Steven?

are they brembos in the top pic? i like the colour matching light covers. doubt it would work on space grey but I'm going for a grey & black colour palette with yellow accents on areas like the callipers.

i like the front splitters but i got the Msport Bumper so not sure about the fitting.
