New climate control panel. Also sent my wood console to oCarbon to recover in carbon fiber. Hoping to get them back soon so I can get my Z back together.

How's your top holding up? I'm in need of a new one ('99Z3 2.3 Green Paint, Tan top) - Thanks, Pat

I wanted to go in on a Zionsville shroud with the electric fan, but I also have to do some maintenance work on my truck so I can't swing that for the time being.
0.5mm Galv offcut for a custom intake box. I started fabricating it today, after all the cutting and drilling I'll paint it to match the engine bay and put a window in to show the filter.

Had installed a RF subframe kit. It's day had come. All is good!
Didn’t get a notification for this since it wasn’t quoted but late response is better than never.
The top is doing great. I have had no issues with it in over 2 years and 20k miles. I daily my Z3 in the Mojave Desert and I don’t always get to park in the shade. It has seen rain, wind, dust, trips to the coast, you name it. Even a little snow. It’s hard to keep the window perfect so it has some scratches but it has no sun damage.
Forgot to add this awhile back since it happened just before I shipped out again, but I had the RF rear subframe kit with some AKG RSF bushings installed back in March after discovering some popped welds in the trunk. Shout out to Randy Forbes for still making the kit after all of these years and for helping me out with my questions!
Yesterday however, I finally pulled the trigger on the Zionsville Radiator shroud & E-Fan kit. Here's hoping it'll be waiting for me in August when I get home so that I can complete the Coolant System overhaul and start driving again!

Got caught up on maintenance, new tires, KW v3 coilovers, and a new blaupunkt head unit. Goes in for paint correction tomorrow and then she’s good to go!

Bought some wheels I wanted but certainly don't need. Uber rare 18x9.5ET25 Style 42 (BBS743) that were optional on some Euro E38s...
Seller was nice enough to just sell me the rears, as the 18x8ET20 won't do much for me up front. So yeah, someday I'll run double staggered Style 42s on the Coupe, but with the low offset, they'd work on the rear of an M as well with some reasonable spacers. TBD.

Doesn’t look like you will need to refinish this set of 42’s
You just need another rack in the garage to store the extra rims
Just got my oil change, new spark plugs and some accessories.
I often kick myself for not buying some 18" Style 42's for my wagon that were available for a good price awhile back...Originally Posted by s8ilver
I do love a double stagger though. Excited to see how that looks on the Z, I've always wanted to try that myself

I just hope they fit. I have a fender roller en route and some wheel boffins tell me I can just fit them. They'd poke another 8ish mm from my current 8.5 rears with the 20mm spacers, but it could be a while as I just put fresh rubber on the current 17s. They'll hang in the basement for the next few years I imagine, or I'll try them on the Roadster. Maybe I should just grab the fronts too, just in case. The price wasn't awful. I paid considerably less than Prussian wanted for his set of rears, and mine are in better shape:

The seller does still have the fronts if you're interested. 18x8ET20. Those would work fine out back, but I didn't see the point of losing an 8.5" wheel for an 8".
I too love a double stagger. My friend showed up in his 2021 Targa 4S with the 21/20 wheel package. Dayum.

Never know, but they look good. Seller claims 85% condition, whatever that means. Luckily I already mounted another rack, but of course there's yet another set of wheels on it already. I have a problem.
