dmk08 · 12-07-2015, 02:31 PM

This thread has changed my opinion of FO on the M4. Still not a fan on the M3 but this car is siiiick.

That is a beauty.

Whostheboss · 12-09-2015, 06:08 PM

Well damn!

Zubek · 12-09-2015, 08:48 PM

Absolutely great build-up ! Yet, I think it's missing 10mm spacers in the back

So ill! Best M4 I have ever seen. Congratulations on having great taste and having the vision to make it come together!

How did you get the orange band on the BMW performance steering wheel? Did the part come that way or did you modify the top center of the steering wheel to be orange?

Thank you very much! I ordered the BMW performance steering wheel from IND with the custom orange stripe.

Latest updates... Alekshop just installed my Akra midpipe and custom painted engine cover by IND. ER chargepipes are on the way, but didn't make it in time for the holidays

Did you manage the airbag and the heated performance seats to work?

We did not do any electrical connections with the BMW seats.

Any reasons for that?
So I asume this is not plug & play...

thank you for your help

Wow, the carefully selected mods on this build match the uniqueness of the color. Perfect build!

On the e9x, the fuse box is in the glove box vs on the f8x it is in the trunk. We would need to run wires from the front all the way to the back to make these parts work and it wasn't a high priority for me at the moment.

20's were never an option IMO. Thank you!

Amazing build Joe, good work! I've def seen your car around the Bay Area, and it's that much more stunning in real life.

Quick question - are you running spacers with the wheels? And how is driving around that low?

Thanks!
