This must be a great drive with that new set up. Heard that PS4’s are pretty grippy.
Is that shot of the suspension bits the front ones with just 3 coils?

Yeah I’ve only driven a few miles. Looking forward to pushing it. Yeah those old shocks were the fronts with Eibach springs.

The Z4 can pull off some funky wheels.
That looks like modern version of the classic AC wheel (better than the new AC a wheels I think). Like an AC wheel by 3SDM or BC forged.

Very cool (and easy to clean !)

OK so I'm impressed, don't think I will go as mad as you, especially as I don't do track days in the Z but... I do really like that rear spoiler. Where did you source it from? Must have a look at my water filled front fogs too! I considered the M front end but have come down on the side of leaving it as BMW made it. I think they pretty much got this one right.

Hi mate, thanks for the feedback. She was my pride and joy, @Rha now owns her and has continued on the journey.

Type into ebay "bmw E86 spoiler" you should see photos of this car.

Get the spoiler @jl-c it looks great on this coupe from all angles, and then we can park up together without either of us feeling out of place. So glad @Lee chose this one for this already great looking BMW out the factory. As everyone will tell you I'm a big fan of the spoiler as long as they're not OTT.
Look at what my previous Z3 had. Miss it just a little.

The coupe suits this very understated rear spoiler. Love it.

Lee will give you the info of what to use so it don't depart from its rightful place over 130. I can vouch for it also. The Z3 one was bolted on, can vouch for that also.=))

That's the spoiler that got me into spoilers years ago when seeing one on a 911 for the first time, not OTT on the 911, on anything else well that's a differant matter. How about this for your coupe.

Not sure, OK on a trackday GT3 but the Z coupé is such a lovely set of curves and a road car I think the bgw is a step too far. I think the spoiler on yours is the right one.

It does look bang on, I agree.

And, this was all Roy's fault too.

Didn't have to twist your arm Tony, good job my son pointed one out at the Watermill meet, absolutely loved the look on the Z4 Roadster saying " that's what you got to get when you get a Z4 Dad".
