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

^^^ Gorgeous shot of the ZHP!

I'm just getting ready to install some Birch trim into the car. Swapping out the silver cubes (originally had black cubes). Man, does this birch trim look AMAZING. I was blown away. It's really high gloss and appears almost brand new. 9.9 except for one scratch (on dash piece) and one crack (one gear lever). All other pieces are flawless without any broken tabs too.

I got the trim from my bro's connection in Germany. He bought the darker Birch anthracite and I opted for the light birch so both of us now have individual trims in our BMW's! PM me for prices but we got both for much less than retail... Hell, I considered it way too good of a deal to pass up!

Since I have a manual car, I'm selling the steering wheel trim and auto gear lever too. The steering wheel trim is flawless:

Excuse the iphone pics (there's some camera artifacts that produce black/dirt spots in all of the images)

There's a guy in Germany who likes helping enthusiasts perfect their rides. He only seeks a measly $20 (or euro... can't remember) commission fee (there's light birch steering wheel trim on ebay - I paid less than that on my WHOLE set and shipping!). It sometimes take months for him to source/find them, but my bro and I were lucky since he had opportunities to get both to us in less than a week from Germany.

I was getting a tire replaced at Sears when the advisor checked my mileage and noticed the black cubed trim. He asked if I had done it myself, and I told him that the car is a ZHP. He then shook his head in approval and gave me a high five. Highlight of my day! haha

He drives an e92 328i btw...

Here's a pic of my bro's anthracite:

It's not nearly in the pristine quality my wood is in (needs to be polished), but it's still much nicer than whatever he has in his car. I myself prefer the lighter color in a black car.

Rofl what?

Today I autocrossed at Sonoma Raceway. At lunch we got 6 medium speed "parade" laps on the NASCAR road course :)

Videos in our Autocross thread (eventually)

Pretty epic day out there. The morning was full of advanced racers on the road circuit. Everything from 911s to Radicals. There was some serious money there. I even saw one of the drivers getting a massage. There was like...a spa set up in the dude's personal pit area.
