That’s huge, congrats on the acquisition.
I have to remove and play with my CF lip this spring to tweak fitment. Wish that lip was more readily available, nice you found someone to hook it up!

That looks great! There needs to be more 4dr lip options. I think the Arqray lip is the only other lip that looks decent on a sedan (looks like you've had one too in the past, lucky!)
Thanks Jacob :thumbsup My co-worker had connections in Yokohama where Garbino is located and they made it happen. I was not expecting to get this so it makes this acquisition that much more special :) It goes without saying once this carbon fiber lip arrives I will be mounting this on my ZHP :cool
Yes, I had the Arqray lip spoiler on my last ZHP. Unfortunately the New England winter destroyed it. Shame this lip spoiler is no longer available and the Garbino lip is hard to source . . . if you go with the Garbino lip be prepared to shell out close to $1,100 after shipping to obtain it. Not many are willing to put out the coin to source a Garbino lip spoiler at that price just to have a lip spoiler.
Regarding the Arqray lip spoiler, Vivid Racing sells a duraflex version that is very close to the design of the original Arqray lip. For those still looking for one this is worth taking a closer look at, here's the link:

I cleaned up the wiring for my ZHP this morning so my center console front ashtray area does not look like a rat's nest of loose wiring. I tucked in everything underneath the ashtray over to the cigarette lighter area. End result is a cleaned area just like on my M3[emoji41]

I just purchased this new Passenger's side C-Pillar to go with the new Driver's side C-Pillar I have stored on hand. Once I have restored my headliner, I will be installing all these new parts . . .
I'm surprise you didn't do the sprint booster button there again. :) Everything looks really good though! I probably would just spray the buttons panel with a new layer of LVP OE Colors for Leather, Vinyl & Plastic Spray Paint Coating

Tony, for me that was a one-off thing. It was very difficult to do back when I did this retrofit and now as I have aged doing this retrofit will be a lot more difficult and would be something I would rather not do at this point in my life. With the Gen3 Sprint Booster I don't think the Sport Button retrofit will work, it has too many features for it to function using only the Sport Button. You will need an earlier version of Sprint Booster to do this retrofit for those who want to attempt this.
As for me, I'm perfectly happy with the placement of my Gen3 Sprint Booster module. :thumbsup
Thanks! Keeping everything clean inside.
I may have to get this and respray a few things. Thanks for the suggestion Tony! :thumbsup
It was a complete surprise as my co-worker used his contacts back in Japan where he served in the Navy to make all this happen for me. We were discussing things that I wanted to continue doing for my ZHP and the Garbino lip came up and I told him ever since I saw this lip installed on Stuart's wagon I have wanted this lip. It has been a very long time now and next thing I knew the Garbino lip was ordered and paid for so it is now being made by Garbino and won't ship out until sometime in late May-early June time frame. Hopefully in time for my birthday in June. It will make for an awesome birthday present :)
I'm also working to acquire a used set of Genuine OEM BMW 330i headers with only 5k miles from a friend who is in the process of packing them for shipping to me. My cats got called out as being bad and replacing all four O2 sensors did not fix the error code so it is time to swap in new headers when they arrive to correct this deficiency. Later this Spring I plan to remove my peeling headliner and clear everything from it and then once it is completely cleaned out I will begin the process of restoring the headliner then restore the sunroof panel before reinstalling everything. I have begun to source the individual covers/panels that attaches to the headliner so when I have everything restored the overhead will look completely fresh. :cool
- my M3 is getting new catless headers and I will also be installing a euro section 1, an AutoSolutions ssk I got from Hieu, and new GUIBO/Center Line Bearing
- my Audi will be getting brand new carbon fiber engine covers, carbon fiber rain guard panel and new blue carbon fiber interior trim pieces
- my Porsche will have new aluminum CSF performance radiators installed (X3) with new radiator hoses for each front radiator.
Most of this was not planned when I began installing my Corsa TSE3 exhaust and AutoSolutions ssk and I'm just going with the flow so to speak but it has been an interesting start to my 2024 car season ;)
This weekend I might have found a solution to my window tint issue since having permanent aftermarket window tint is "against the law" in my state. I found a product that is a film you can attach and also remove. It is attached using static and stays on.

I have ordered the front/rear side windows and rear window tint film in 35% shade and should be receiving them sometime next week. Looking forward to seeing how this works out on my daily driver. If it works out then I will be getting this for all cars in my collection.
