Looks great mate, I love it. Cars tend to look a little bit more edgy without center caps

I wanted a Black 325i Sport BAD for ages, then i got a (Black) 4 pot is, and now i have this Red thing
What about smoked Indicators instead of clears, i think that would go on Black alot better

hi will,you've prob. bin lookin at splondike's sport too much.lovely car.black is best though

the only thing about going smoked is,at that point would prob have to fit smoked rears,i like them but not paying 250 notes for the pleasure plus i think id prefer to keep the standard look.

lol.
you could try tint spray but i don't think it will look as good unless you do em red.Mine are the MHK or MH or MHW or something like that.£190.Not cheap and not to everyones taste.If i were going to use tint spray the i would do them red because they look smart.I think when tinting black they dont look to good.

very impressive buster,thats alot of work you've done there.what manifold and system you using?expensive?am looking to fit a stainless system.why did you change the head?is she a high miler.the reason i ask is mine is on 150k but running fine,good power,no cooling or gasket probs with the head.

thanks,i replaced the head as the old one cracked.So when i got another head i thought may aswell do the job right and upgraded it,cam and all.The manifold and system is a full magnex ,but i have removed the centre box now so basically its 6 branch then straight through pipes to the back box.

think i may be getting hold of a piper fast road cam and follower kit at the right price from a guy i know,brand new,bought it for his sport and never fitted it.that combined with the stainless system an kn panel filter,should release a few more hp.what power you producing at the moment with those mods?
