Awesome. Do you have an estimated weight savings and overall target weight for the car?

Looks good so far, but what color interior did you use to have.....looks pretty good from the door inserts.

And is the Motorsport24 the only option for oil coolers?

E90 with rear seat delete + roll bar not that common, looking forward to it, congrats on the planned work. Must be a reasonable weight saving with rear seats out and fixed back seats in the front.

i pulled my rear interior in my e90. just seats mostly and got 82 lbs out of it. fronts can get you roughly the same amount unless you go with kevlar CF seat and can get more like 100lbs.

Update

Fall-line Roll Bar is completed (but still needs to be painted).

Ilia (iND) advised my M3 is going to the upholsterer to finish the rear seat closeout. Then to iND to finish everything.

Nate (iND) is also updating the Sponsor M3 Project Cars section - "IND's Portfolio Projects"

More to come....

No, the motivation was to increase safety, weight savings was a by-product.

Thanks! Extended Bamboo Beige Leather. Don't know if there are other Oil Coolers available, I went with M24 because of their reputation.

Thanks Guys - I'm getting anxious myself, looks like I may miss my first track event of the season. I told Ilia don't rush.

UPDATE

Ilia from iND has advised the Alcantara Close Out (Rear Seat Delete) has been completed. The Fall-Line Roll Bar is now being disassembled to be painted gloss black.

The DME is at ESS for the upgraded VT-1 550 software - iND already has the 5.5psi pulley.

The DCT fluid still needs to be flushed along with installation of the M24 Oil Cooler. The Racetech seats are installed.

iND is almost done....I can't wait, next track event is in 3 weeks.
