Appreciate it! But this one is the garage queen next to the e92 m3. They aren't going anywhere.

Glad to hear the e46 m3 is going well.

How much work was needed to do the carbon roof? Drill out welds to remove steel roof and glue in the carbon roof?

If you are just doing a roof (I did quarters do little different for me) however it's front and rear glass removed. Then drop headliner is ideal. Drill out spot welds and glue in new panel and a roof brace if you had a sunroof.

What brakes are you running? Are they standard 1M/M3 discs?

The car looks fantastic by the way!

For the most part it was buy calipers. Measure everything on calipers and car then designed a bracket. 3d printed it in plastic to do test fits, made a few revisions, then once everything looked good I made one out of metal.

Ya had it there a few times, normally cruise over with a few other bmw friends. Haven't gone much lately due to the amount of crap people are doing when leaving etc. I'm sure I'll have it over there again in the future.

Since last time I posted in here. Pretty much entire interior. Single turbo set up, carbon bits, wheels, carbon driveshaft, painted engine bay. Did a lot over the last year.

Looks real good, I did see your car and Sandia BMW's wheels and coffee. The interior looks great. Not a super big fan of the wing but that's just me. And I recognize where you took those pics. I took a few of my car at that (nearly) same spot on Christmas or Thanksgiving.
