Oh...also the seatbelt clip is missing and cup holder is broken. It's a weekend driver so I can fix myself if I know a good place to purchase parts.
Second, being that I don't know much about this car, is there anything that I should look out for mechanically or otherwise? I love the motor. I had a m3 with the same motor so I know it doesn't like cold weather but I want to keep this car for at least 5 years and have it well maintained. What's this about inspections? I'm reading as much as I can and any help would be greatly appreciated!

When I got my Z4M Coupe home, I found that 2 of the passenger side motor mounts were loose (one missing, the other loose).

I would invest in the $8 worth of auto sand paper and less than 2 hours of your time that it takes to remove the trim and put the money you save towards another mod.
BTW, congrats on the new car.
