Like the colour and wheels, but the front plate still looks gash. Would look better where its supposed to be.

Nah looks shit where it's supposed to be. I hate it with a passion.
The plate is where it is for a reason so I can remove it

Before the blow out nope, It's halfway down the sidewall too away from any camber wear. It's blown out from a few weeks of under inflation I think

Haha they do but so not practical for everyday driving! Forever bottoming out and on the way over to the show on Saturday I committed to an overtake on a country road, hit a really harsh dip in the road and from what my friend driving behind me said the back end of my car came off the ground. Brown pants moment I had to commit to it too because it was a 3 car overtake. Held it like a boss ha

Haha I know. But I guess it gets people talking so maybe quite clever actually.

Couple more pictures found from the weekend
Also I fell quite lucky and ended up with a partly worked prototype ducktail spoiler for the z4, still needs a lot of work but they don't sell one on the market so If you can't buy it! Bloody make it!
Still needs more work doing on it. Could ideally do with finding someone to mould it then make more out of fibre glass or something. But I don't know anyone who can do it?
