Pictures don't do them Justice Jim, the finish is excellent.
Very nice they look great Paul 
Looking very nice and cracking wheel you have there.
The shadow chrome really changes with the light, in full on aummmer sunshine they look silver and in dark gloomy weather they go much darker as you see. You’ll see what I mean when a bright day comes round (give it a few months lol )

Too cold outside for doing anything on the car so brought some of it indoors.
Leather cleaned and fed.
Giving the rest of the interior a good fettle before re installing the seats, Hopefully when the weather warms up.

Finally took the bumper off to get to remove the headlights to sought out the condensation.
With even colder weather on the way took the plunge, poured a substantial amount of water out before using hot air blower(Didn't fancy putting them in the oven. Now safely drying in my workshop, otherwise known as the living room, (Jacquies out for the afternoon).
Now sealed with Silicone so hopefully will not have to take them off again. Think i will have another go at the lenses whilst there off as still some slight scratching.

Having a chill day before hitting my car with some LED mods tomorrow Paul. Looking like it'll be a good idea to do them before next week's cold weather arrives.

Well after the disappointment of not going to Silverstone, hit the Ebay. Never been 100% about the carbon fibre look and was hunting around to find some spare dash parts to have painted when i came across these Leather covers with red stitching. A must buy for me and quick as a flash arrived this morning. Something to do tomorrow.
They will look nice mate a nice touch
That looks nice Paul
I agree Tony, I think Paul is firmly on the other horse now.

First trip out tonight in the Z4 to the Reindeer Inn car meet since having the Poly bushes fitted to the rear of the front wishbones. As with the Z3 the results are fantastic. The car turns in better, feels more composed and any fears of the ride being even harder soon dismissed. Turned me in to a bit of a hooligan at a couple of roundabouts, all in the interest of science! Well pleased, big thank you to @t-tony for sorting the pressing of the bushes. "Still love my Z3 though"
Did you get the old ones off easily enough Paul? Fitting the new ones is a doddle.

Cheated, took it to the garage, didn't fancy going that far underneath and as it turned out one was a pig to get off also while they had it they sorted noise coming from suspension so for £60 well happy especially as while it was there did some work on a private lawn for £50, its called distribution of wealth and knowledge i think!
Had a very spirited run to Cadwell and back today, car now well sorted.
Will fetch the old ones over when we do the Bomber command thing if that's OK
That'll do for me mate, thank you.

Having wheels refurbished this week but don't know what colour to do it. Any ideas Paul?
