      i have done many things while trying to keep the looks stock as possible..
      H&R OE Sports/Bilstein Sports
      Eibach Sways
      M3 Cabs
      JimC Chip
      Sparco Bar
      Turner Fixed Camber Plates
      Massive Big Brake Kit
      Cd43 Radio
      The rest of the things were accessories like euro grill, euro plate filler, IS lip..etc

      The looks are pretty good for me, I am just debating on if I should upgrade to H&R Race springs or stay with these.

      Future plans are going to be more maintenance like tie rods, cap/rotor..etc

      One thing next on my list for sure though is a Z3 Finned Differential cover


      Thanks for the kind words again.

        Nice car. How much spacing did you use for the wheels.

          Is it black interior too or no? The pics keep playing with my eyes.

          Just an fyi, I am on 5 lug, but still Billie Sports/H&R Race on 15x7 weaves with 205-55-15s on the pic below.

            in the front i got 15mm which make it look outstanding, just needed to take them off to shim them so they can fit with my larger front rotors. in the rear i got 5mm its the most i can do before it rubs.

            i would recommend putting spacers to anyone with euroweaves.

              no unfortunatly the interior in grey (would like to have black) but is in extremely good condition. ill post up a pic.

              thanks for the pics with the race springs it looks so good. i like the clean stock look but i really want it to handle much better so i am still not sure. and the roads suck here!! i also dont like rake to much either, although i do have fixed camber plates that add stack height so it might work out better for me..i still need to decide.

                Ive been really thinking about it for my euroweaves and 5mm was what i was thinking for all around. Did you use the same lugs or go longer?

                  ya i used the same bolts in the rear its no problem. i strongly recommend getting them. for the front the kit came with longer bolts

                    Hey, are your bumpers Diamondschwarz (diamond black)? If so, this is the second one I've seen now, and the other owner claims the bumpers are original. Rumour is that BMW changed their paint offerings mid model year, and somehow overstock of DS bumpers made it onto Schwarz cars.

                      you know what, now that you mentioned it..the front bumper is not actually "black"...more of a lighter "charcoal" color.. ive always noticed and never thought anything of it.

                          Seems kinda pathetic to me. But somewhat funny nonetheless.

                          Get races! Do it! ;)

                          Clean car, looks really nice.
