Ah I'd missed the mirror caps too. Sort of hidden in the other photos. Good work!

Nailed it yesterday on a good road and it proper hugged the contours of the road...Amazing just doesn't cover it!!

Big thanks to Chris for his advice and heads up on set up over emails, much appreciated pal!.

My springs are from MoTech, Eibach 25mmF-25mmR.

Was out today and the looks I was getting!!! Just awesome.

This is great! It's good to see another car looking

This is the motech car number 003. I took some screen shots from YouTube.The back is a little higher according to the comments.

Found my new favorite thread on this forum, F40 is such a stunning car.

That's Tony Lewis ( TRL ) car. Looks good with these alloys too and SBM.

I just had a message from Motech. Maxton rear diffuser is finally in stock. Possibly getting fitted next week if opening all works out.

Pretty much complete then for me aesthetics wise.

I always a little apprehensive when someone comments that as not sure if ... serious.

Thank you if so.

Great looking ride there, damn I miss actual iconic halos. Who cares if the completion copied then, BMW should have kept em.

Oh good to know I had no idea that was his car. The rear diffuser would finish your car very well. Can't wait to see it!

I've purchased my spacers and I'm currently working through the ordering of the eibach lowering springs. The shop I'm dealing with can only order in the eibach pro kit which drops the front by 30mm. Not sure if I want the fronts that low. The person I'm dealing with seems to think that there is only one setting for the pro kit. Not sure I want it that low

Mine is a pro kit mate 25F-25R so not sure what he's talking about.

Look on MoTechs web page, they give about 3-4 different options

Honestly, I don't know why we won't get other options in Aus. I found out some more info so the 30mm drop Fronts is Eibach's world wide kit. The guy I have been speaking to seems to think that the other options are exclusive to motech.

I put together a comparison of a 30mm drop at the front vs 25mm

Chris: I think this is your car in thr comparison

[JustChris]

Agree with the above. I genuinely think I can see the minor difference between F and R in mine...or is it just because I know it's there

Mini me now in the payroll for my random shot of the day. My car cleaning days might be over. I let him get away with single bucket but with a grit catcher thing in the bottom. Better things to do in life than hours of detailing!

[JustChris]

Here's another taken just now. Barely any difference. For the comfort I think it's the best approach but I'm a little biased!

By the way the deal on these Bola wheels I am over the moon with:-

£1700 for Bola FLC AND MPS4S tyres
-£200 off that as I did not need the spacers and this was factored in my overall work with Motech

So paid £1500 for approx -2kg per corner, added safety of revised offset and no spacers and big tyre upgrade...plus of course looks with my cerium delete.

Main part is I just sold my original 557M and the tyres for £1200

Actual cost for my wheel AND tyre upgrades £300 oh yea!!!

Chris - your ride looks amazing too bad we don't get this car here in US

Now that's a proper DEAL! The bola wheels sit pretty good with the MP4's.. I think also its because the bola wheels are 8.5 inches wide as opposed to standard the wheel being 8.0 inches. It stretches the 235 tyres well 👍

I need to get one of those 'mini me's' to help with the cleaning
