This has come so far in two years. Simply keeps getting better and better.

Super technical drawing for twill 2x2 weave requirement for roof to match hood.

For Zpost CF roof group buy with Geoff Steel in the UK. Thanks Alex and Chris for setting that up.

things you do while kicking back in a resort with the kids and missus in Bali.

Just be careful what you eat.

Vanne · 06-26-2017, 10:35 AM

Lol yeah didn't eat any dog sate mate

I de-badged the car when it got resprayed at the beginning of this adventure. However the intensions initially were to always somewhere along the line to restore the M badges. However in light of how the car has changed now rather drastically over the last year or so, I've decided to take another direction…

The car is now different enough that i think something else is in order and looking to complete some of the aesthetic aspects of the car.

Ive finally settled on something a little different but will imho go hand in hand with the design aspect of the car overall and hopefully will be a good complement to the car.

Its always a difficult battle between going too far out there, and changing the car too much as to annoy the purist of the brand/model. What i was looking for was something a little more race inspired, but keeping within the design aspects of the Zed and BMW.

Ill post up a few pictures when I've completed the re-badgging.. I am hoping it will turn out really nice and a little race inspired.

Quick photo of sound recording session in Abu Dhabi yesterday. Thanks for the coffee Gonzalis.

VossenCoupe · 06-28-2017, 03:20 PM

Your car is really coming together man
It looks so awesome with that hood can't wait to see what it looks like with a matching roof
Red is a perfect color for a real sports car

Yesss! Love the sound of that thing.

Vanne · 08-02-2017, 11:38 PM

So yesterday I took a few hours and detailed the car before Friday afternoons photo session.
Car was very very dusty from being stuck under my 2 covers during the hot summer here in my driveway.

And the car...

And then I started on the new ///M details.

Ahh, looks so great. It's a treat to stop by this thread after a while and see where things have gone. Top stuff Vanne!

Vanne · 08-03-2017, 11:12 AM

Quick change until I re align those properly
