Lorenzo's ZHP Coupe Project

[BMWCurves]

I know that feeling. The previous owner of my 2003 330Ci ZSP would let his wife drive it fairly often and I noticed that she wore acrylic nails. It dawned on me that those nails were the most likely cause of the torn up ashtray and storage compartment doors. Ended up sourcing local replacements for about $50 which was great.

Installed new ZHP Shifter. Looks and feels good. But now the scratches on the ashtray and storage compartment doors look that much worse.

You can replace that whole section, but the piece is 80-120$ if I remember correctly. My HVAC relocation piece cost me 110$. It looks so new though! Love it.




Just gotta do my console now...

Passed VA safety inspection today! Close though. Rear tires at 3/32 and front a bit better at 5/32. I did pick up Michelin PSS last week so I could get the $70 rebate that expired 12/31. I'm thinking I'll wait until spring to mount the new tires and squeeze the remaining life out of the old Bridgetone Pole Positions.

Yes, it was a part of the move. No children for me, thanks.

BP has those beautiful natural brown seats, but he doesn't want that kind of natural, first time passengers are handed a diaper to don before he allows them to ride shotgun...

Beautiful sunny day in Reston, Virginia. Finished polishing yesterday with Pinnacle swirl remover and polish. Not bad. I'll do another treatment in the spring with a new product. Perhaps Wolfgang, Blackfire, or Mcguiers 205.

I think it needs a tint too. Law is 50% front and 35% in rear in VA. I wonder if I can get away with 35% all around without attracting police attention.

Larry, with a gray interior you should be able to get away with 35% tint all around, a lighter interior doesn't make it look as dark, I know my sons do his. Also, you have your own "gray" (hair) factor and can claim that the car came that way, LEOs will let you go with a warning. Bruce
