Couple small mods...

Here are pics of a couple small recent mods. I picked up the Imola red door arm rests from leatherZ because the arms rest are hard as hell.

They came with double stick automotive tape that didnt really work for shit so I ended up using some two-part epoxy to stick em down. They arent going anywhere now

While I was at I used a BMW center cap I had lying around and cut the engine cover so I could just snap the center cap into place. It worked pretty good expect that I had to glue it a little bit to prevent it from spinning.

The leatherz armrests have always looked a little strange to me, but to each his own. I'm sure they are comfortable

Dig the roundel mod. Nice and subtle.

Black ///M

I think the small symbol in the engine bay is another attempt to kill time with the Z4 and in the end gives a inexpenisve way to feel good about improving your ride without spending any more money on gas or getting the thing dirty.

You put it on and go Ohhhh and Ahhhhh!

BTW...it should be an ///M symbol

Cheers!

PS, I'll likely install mine on the weekend if I can figure out how to pop the hood

Well BMW put one there anyway and it looks crap in black,
So adding color to an already placed dull roundel is silly?

i just don't like mods that don't look like they belong. to me, that mod looks like it doesn't belong. thats my opinion. if you like it, thats all that counts.

certain mods i just don't personally understand. why do you need a carbon fiber engine cover? why spend $300-$500 on a mod that adds nothing to performance and only adds to visual appeal that you will barely ever look at. but again, if you like it, A+
