Awesome! I'm assuming it's pretty impossible to get the m print alcantara right? I've thought about having my interior done in the square perforated alcantara like you, but it would probably be cheaper to wait for a set to become available.

What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

Swapped ALs in for the Depos that came with it. Hit the shift surround trim with some PD.

Also investigated the install of illuminated shift knob. I need to run to the Shack to get a connector.

And sweated my nads off. 92*

Also repaired my left inop fog. Thanks for the ballast Botond.

M-Alcantara? Good luck...

I've honestly given up on that idea as it's pretty much impossible to find and the few people that have it don't sell. I looked into new price of the fabric from BMW and got rid of that thought right away (even with my ridiculous discount).

Honestly, I need to find herringbone Recaro fabric anyways for the E21 so I'll just buy a bunch and redo my E46 with it ;)

This is exactly the struggle I faced with Natural Brown. Insanely hard to come by because nobody wants to get rid of it... :(
After a while I just gave up.

Saturday:
- Judged a car show in Ft. Lauderdale and although my car wasnt in show, it was one of the few BMW's even around. JDM central. (We did give Best in Show to a sick 1400+ HP Nissan S15 Silvia
Sunday:
- Went to local cars and coffee. It was the 1yr anniversary and there were sooo many cars. I showed my car to an e30 owner and explained the ZHP package. Talked with a local e36/e90 M3 owner who currently races IMSA Continental Tire Sportscar Challenge GS class, he liked my car.
- Watched my Dolphins actually win, against the Patriots
- Bought an e30 on ebay today. :wub
Hope everyone else had a great weekend.
