I will be heading into work in the morning and making my way back home for about 12, my wife finishes up at 1400, she is doing a bit of work over in Canary Wharf so she would be home in 15min or so, plan to head off just before 1500 so I could meet you at one of the first services on the M4 outside of the M25, I will be making my way through Chelsea and up past Heathrow. Will pm you my number.

As usual, the right choice for your AW 1M. Fits perfectly well with the rest of your car. I wonder if it would look that good on a VO though. Now I am with the new exhaust, next is proably the Alpha N trunk that I consider as the perfect shape for this car. Question is shall I also take the diffusor or not? Splitters are a harder choice for me because of my garage entry/exit situation, see how the bottom of front bumper looks:

Interesting the area you scrape, mine is all centred around the fixing screw point you can see on your pics, but nothing forward of that point, my garage entrance runs along side a downhill run of the main drive so I now need to drive past, reverse into a visitors bay across from the gate and then attack it from the lower angle otherwise I cannot get into my garage and all speed bumps need to be taken at an angle.

Because in my case the real problem is the point right between the pedesterian passage starting from condo's garage gate and the street, that is the point with a very difficult angle and since the pavement there is broken I am guessing it also changes a bit in time due to all kinds of vehicles passing on and exterior factors like rains. Sometimes I make the exact same exit angle I always do to get on the street and still it scrapes and other times don't Dealing with coming traffic is another issue. I never had any problems on any other surface in the city...yet. I am also forced to use the exit area in order to enter, since the normal entrance from the street is simply impossible, good for SUVs only (a minimum 70 % of condo garage are SUVs).

Not really much you can do then. I have decided when the front end is due a respray, the underside of the bumper is going to be sprayed in a matt black, that way any scrapes will just show up the black plastic.

Indeed, but I guess will have to see if it fits with work timing and all the rest, hopefully it all fall into place! Keen on the Welt not only for the experience but also one of the M3post members based in Munich has an iND CRT style lip which would be nice to pick up

Mate you will work it out just think about it, 5 or 6 M's taking to the alps, run to the Welt and a blast around the ring.......Not to be missed You catch that write up in the latest evo mag of the CRT? The CRT lip spoiler would look spot on and finish it off with the CRT boot spoiler |

The high alpine road would be blast to drive Can't see why we can't duck over from Vipiteno instead of heading straight up to Innsbruck, thats if we don't have to head via Innsbruck.....Drop the idea to Marcus as it sure does look like a great drive. |
