Billet Aluminum Jack Pads - Buh Bye Plastic.

Working on a little project to replace the stupid plastic BMW jack pads with something more usable. I've hated this BMW way of life since the first time I went to jack up the car and put it on stands.

I've got a pretty nice home shop to make things, so this has been on my to do list. I've got the pads done now, just needs to make some hold down plates/nuts and get them installed.

Block of material in the CNC machine.



Roughed out.



Semi-finishing









The block of aluminum is pretty heavy to start, so the backside is completely hollowed out to reduce the weight, becauseracecar.



M Logo just because.



I narrowed the lower profile so it fits nicely inside the Schwaben jack stands.
