Haven't updated this thread in a while - figured it was time. While I have some long-term plans for the car, I am trying to keep it OE+ ZCP clean until I decide to pull that trigger. This car truly is a cherry example and it's been such a joy keeping it that way.

Since the last post, the car traveled halfway across the country and back with no issues. It's been a real champ!

The car is every bit as exciting as it was on day 1 for me...love it

Anyway, onto the changes:
  • Full paint correction & ceramic coating
  • BimmerWorld Race muffler
I also purchased a full LED interior light kit which I haven't had a chance to put in yet. Other 2019 plans include refreshing the shocks & springs, getting re-aligned, as well as a few maintenance items. Also looking to upgrade the Hi-Fi system.

I replaced my OE muffler mod with the BW Race. Still getting acquainted with the sound...it's louder now and I'm not a fan of the dual tips vs quad tips. In the photos I am missing the rear bumper hanger as the originals wore out. I bought some new mounts and will be re-installing the mount to get the muffler fitment just right next update. I will probably paint the muffler cans and X-brace black to hide the fart cannon look. Not a fan of seeing all the stuff underneath like that. Primary reason for replacing the muffler was to get more sound and save around 30lbs at the same time. This was definitely accomplished but I will be keeping my OE mod to re-install down the road.

Onto the pics...I tried CarPro Reload for the first time.

Such a stunner!







Don't mind the fingerprints
