  • Because of the delay with the tires I got impatient and needed something to do, started dyeing some of the parts I bought. This takes a while...



    The tail lights had a rather rough surface, so I had to do something with them. Before, midway and after. Still waiting for the last one to arrive.







    One more of the Hamanns:

      • This is what I ended up with for now. Really wanted it lower, but the rear wheels rub all the time when I had it 5mm lower. So this will do for now, until I modify my fenders more.

                • Looks great! How did you restore the tail lights? Just a little bit or polishing compound?

                    Thanks!

                    Looks like the car the tail lights came off had been going trough machine washes all its life, so they were very matte, but not any deep scratches. Started wet sanding with 2000 grit and polished with Scholl S3 Gold ond spider pad, finished off with S30+ and orange pad.

                        It's an replica of the M-performance spoiler, bought here in Norway.
                        The brakes are M-sport brakes from F30. Both calipers and rotors.

                        • The complete backseat is now dyed.


                          Also I have detailed the exterior of the car. 13 hours in total. Started with Scholl S3 Gold and blue spider pad, continued with S30+ with orange pad and finished off with Swissvax Shield. LCI tail lights are also installed. Hopefully I'll get some pictures tomorrow or Saturday.

                              Funny you should say so, because these wheels look bigger than the RS2's from last year. Is it because I commented on your "Hartge"-wheels?

                              • The weather was kind of nice yesterday so I managed to get a few shots of the car. The exterior is "finished" for this year and I'm really happy with the outcome. The LCI tail lights was a huge improvement!

                                More pictures here:

                                Edit: If one of the moderators reads this, can you please change the name of my thread to "BMW E92 335i - progress thread". As I am no longer on air I don't want that part. I've changed it myself but it doesn't change the name in the forums, only the post.
