Big thanks to Tin for coming down and helping me fit the carbon fibre engine cover. Was quite easy needed to remove the pollen filter tray etc but wasn't a big deal at all. Fitment is really good too, just waiting for the new M badge to turn up and it's all complete [cool

looks ok :D matches with the intake nicely. Would have been perfect if the weave was at the same angle as the intake though ;).

It's always about the attention to detail hey Afif ;) .

Nice one though Teddy, it does look sweet in your engine bay with the intake.

Looks ace that Teddy, think a carbon plenum chamber cover would finish it all off nicely.

Teddy, your carbon fibre consumption is delaying the Airbus manufacturing! What next? CF dash?


Instead of cf, I want this on my engine!

match da brembos
Exactomunto :D :D

Bought 4 cans of high temp gloss red paint from Halfords, borrowing my friends airbrush kit this weekend (he'll kill me if I clog it up!). Because the M3 engine cover has a coarse texture anyway, the gloss paint will make it look powdercoated ;)

nice one nick, how did you remove the M badge cos me and Tin couldn't and he snapped it a little bit so we decided to leave it lol

are you doing it in red? Why not get airbrush gun from BMW in original Mystic Blue, that'd be sick! You have been keeping this quiet hmmmm :mad:
