Liking my ar*e

gtsussex · 04-27-2016, 12:36 PM

Been a long day but a really brilliant one with dropping in at ACS and meeting M5essex. Also got spacers and exhaust tips done. I do very much love my rear end now....

Good to meet you Damo. Has settled down now and nowhere near as sticking out - think I'll stick with it.

Will take some proper photos tomorrow morning assuming weather plays ball.

Looked great when I passed you on the other side of the road!

Looks really good, the stance is perfect. How far to the tips stick out?

Flush with bumper - they poke out a few mm when hot. Will take some photos tomorrow when hopefully it's not bloody raining/hailing.....

Wills2 · 04-27-2016, 01:46 PM

Lovely, what size spacers?

gtsussex · 04-27-2016, 01:46 PM

Another thing to add. Have never heard another CP outside and they do sound bloody good. Will try and grab some clips.

12mm on back and 10mm on front. Was worried when we pulled off the ramps but has settled and I think they look fine (I think). As said, will get some decent photos done tomorrow morning.

JustChris · 04-27-2016, 02:10 PM

Going straight I my barsket!

Right, brain getting into gear.... :-) Of course, that makes sense. Trust the Yellow Peril once again impressed...

PS No you can't see the bolts at all - the diffuser helps a lot.

dopper99 · 04-27-2016, 02:37 PM

Looking really good Guy. Liking the look of those.

So you went to Lorcan's place today? Was it to try out an ASC suspended M3? Anything to report?

Did I see you too? Did you flash. North of Ely I think? I was in the silverstone m3

Good to meet you too Guy.

Your SMB in person is such a stunning colour

spacers and tips really look great too. Did you notice it felt any different on the long drive home? Steering/ handling the same? Any wobble?

Lorcan at ACS is a good guy and was very helpful. and their AY M4 really is something else... I knew today's trip would cost me! I need that power kit!!

If I am honest, turn in didn't feel as keen. Could be because I started attacking some roads and the last attacking I did was in the ACS M4 (we only really went in a straight line to Ian's). Comfort suspension also felt bloody awful on way home so pushed into Sport. It's also expensive visiting Lorcan

Thanks again, Lorcan for today. Certainly was a well spent 4 hour round trip over to you

Not often you see two CP M3's in the same place at the same time :-)

Should have taken lots of photos but then it decided to p*ss down...
