I’m here. Excited.

Me next.

I will take the photos tomorrow after I do the wheel trim and main panel - plus I have to use mom's phone as my opt lense is broke on my phone.

I am anxious with anticipation

I'm done - I will eventually do my console but I'm going to wait - it's simple black leather - so no real hurry - I'm very pleased with the results - I have just a few more things to do - I'll wrap the console eventually - My M suede steering wheel cover is coming as is my red start/stop button - I did paint my start/stop button trim (behnd the button 'ring') an M blue today - but I've still not got the button in the mail. I'm very pleased with the matrix black - I'll post pictures tomorrow - i was delayed an hour or so fiddling with the unlock door plug for the main dash board re-assembly. All went pretty smoothly though - I even got my steering wheel plastic trim wrapped. That was fun. :shake:

It's too dark even with flash to get a good one of my dash - here's my steering trim - don't look at my legs weirdos.

Just checking that you are not doing areas already leather wrapped or wasn’t sure it you had the extended leather option. Quite curious how these are all going.

I swapped to something a tad more civilized than my M3 and this pic makes me miss the 8k+ redline and that ****ing sound.

well darn you! I just ordered the suede M steering wheel wrap that you have to lace on w/ the threads - that'll help the aesthetics, I used my friends Iphone - that camera is unforgiving - my wheel looks cleaner than what imperfections the flash has caused. LOL

Miles - you may recall my hood vents being woven graphite carbon fiber - I had it ALL blacked up - My lip and whole hood repainted jet black, again; originally the lip and vents were the graphite and the rest was black - now it's just black EVERYwhere!

The body shop did a great job!

You’re making me miss the M3. I would have kept it as a second car if it was a manual transmission. The DCT is definitely the way with that car though.

What am I looking at here?

I need a before and after photo. What's really different?

What miles is referring to is the cars engine redlines at 8000 RPM versus 4000 or whatever for most cars.

I think the horn portion is factory but the steering wheel spokes he covered. Not sure though.

**** I quoted the wrong post.

I meant to quote SR's pictures of the steering wheel, not Miles post. I get the redline thing.

Tired. Bed.
