little bit bored at home at the moment so decided to share a few pics of my dirty bmw!
not used it much recently and just finished fitting the bigger brakes all round, 6 pots on the front and 4 pots on the rear. stops pretty well now!
Next step is to fit some front wheel spacers and fit my Pss9 coil overs, then its a trip to the body shop to get the paintwork sorted.
Front brakes
Rear brakes
and the obligatory 4 tailpipe shot

When I was looking for one I wanted blue black leather but seeing the grey black with aluminium trim made me change my mind.
For a 10 year old car they still hold their own.

Why would I ? I am scared that people will recognize the car and location, and will follow me to steal it.
