David & Scarlett's Project Thread

[David]

It's mostly been visual upgrades thus far (and thankfully):

• Alloys Refurbished
• Roll Hoops Retrofit
• Replaced the seats for Sports Seats (need to refurb them still, in Indy Red)
• Black Angel Eye Headlights
• Fitted Brushed Ally Centre Console (Have a leather Z3M console still to fit)

Plenty of other little bits and pieces too. Looking to upgrade the suspension to a decent set of adjustable coilovers at an affordable price also...

Just dropped Scarlett off with Uncle @Lee for the week for a pampering session. It's going to be a strange week without her, having to use public transport

 

[David]

Myself and Scarlett had an AMAZING day out for @BMBabe and @Rha 's birthday cruise. Well worth the 250 mile round-trip!

Here's a picture of us on the Silverstone Grid!

Scarlett now has ///M vents, with the ///M badge removed and recess filled of course, as Scarlett is not a Z3M.

The body shop guy made a mistake and painted all of the vent red, instead of leaving the plastic 'meshy' part matte black, and therefore didn't charge me for the work done. But I have to say, I think I prefer them this way!

What do you think?

I think it looks nice with the vents in one colour as I said to you when I saw them. Just a little touch to make the car a little different from everyone else.

Good job on removing the M badges too.

 

[Shelly]

Luv it
It looks great

 

[Lee]

I'm a fan!

Looks great!!

I just got my gills back today, and they've done the same!



Less noticable in cosmos though I guess. Now I have brand new M badges with no home

Here's a little teaser of what I'm up to tonight. Giving a helping hand as and when required!

With an extra special bonus bit of detail being added later.

Completed project pictures will be up later this evening - stay tuned!

...aaaand here she is!

Now I know I must have some new wheels!

 

[t-tony]

You've been a busy boy then mate, looking very nice I like it.

Tony.

ps. Did you see the Xmas presents?

 

[Jack Ratt]

She looks great David. Did you video the job? Did you make templates for the side feature?

 

[hard top]

Cool for cats mate, love it........

 

[David]

@Jack Ratt I've had it done professionally, and I've asked the guy to save the templates just in case anyone else wants to give it a go. They were designed on the computer and laser cut.

No video, but lots of pictures!
Will upload the best shots when I'm home.

 

[Jack Ratt]

You need some wire wheels and white walled tyres to finish it off

Looks good @David I think if I was to do it I'd have to go under the side gills and not as deep toward the rear a la corvette! But nothing wrong with this at all!

 

[David]

@oldcarman I did consider that option first, but the lines of the side vents meant it was a no-brainer for them to be included, and in my opinion it looks so much better this way.

 

[GazHyde]

Can't wait to see it in person in the daylight David. Always difficult to see the proper effect properly under strip lighting!
