Started thinking about a brake upgrade now.
I picked up 280x22 disc so just need to get a bit if engineering done.
Just had to have a mock up tonight tho.

[shedrool83]

Now the M30 shell has gone i was able to get the alpina reps off(thank god) and the mims on until i fit the brake.
Also hoping to get a full black leather interior at some point so fitted the black boot carpet and subs .
Forgot to keep the black pillar covers and skipped them .
Its also sporting an i.s lip spoiler now.






Will also need to get a black load cover with dog guard .
There is one on ebay atm so fingers crossed to boy will post .

Drives so much better on the Mim's


The 4 pots are ready to fit when i get the time.one they go on the mims will be replace by these 16" borbet c's >Going to give then a refurb and a coat of granite silver first.

It was saveable but i really cant be bothered with it tbh,and unfortunately it was worth more to me in parts.

Great wrk as always, Jake keep me in mind when you change the interior please.

Cheers mate.
Your right about the $

Top work mate, car has come on leaps and bounds. Borbet c's aren't a common wheel and that granite grey is a cool touch! (whats the actual colour / code of the paint?) So i know for when someone wants to refurb their wheels and paint them a smart colour other than silver

It sits lovely now on them springs too!

Borbet c's are on

Can do with 10-15 spacers on the back but i'm happy how they look.

[oomz1975]

Totally Dan.

The alpina reps did fine there way onto another black touring just up the road

[shedrool83]

Been giving this a bit of tlc

The n/s/f wing had a rust hole by the mudflap so changed that for a s/h gen wing which needed painting.

Removed the front valance due to a small dent on the corner and fitted a s/h rust free one that i shutz and painted.

Painting was done in the garage and air dried so isnt top notch job but it isnt bad and will do my turd proud.





My tailgate will be replace due to a small bit of rust on the inside edge with the rust free one i have off the red m30.

Primed ready to paint.



Also had the after market steering wheel and the cluster off the m30 lying so they went on too.
Steering wheel will be painted black at somepoint.

[shedrool83]

Tailgate is now replaced.

Warning to everyone with a touring.My tailgate looked mint apart from when you opened it there was a small bit of rust down the right hand side by the numberplate surround.Look what i found when i removed the surround.


Totally fecked.


Got my boot install all wired up to




while the carpet was out to run the wires i fitted the black carpet .





Going to get black sports interior at some point now.



Magpie's zone decals came so they went on too.
