Charlie's ///M Project Thread

[cakM3]

Thanks BP

Right now there's a few things left to do before the 2014 season starts...

- Illuminated ///M Door sills
- 1x1 carbon fiber engine cover
- swap out my Scorza CSL bootlid for my new OEM CSL bootlid
- change out my OE brake system for the ZCP upgrade including rotors...
- swap out my parcel shelf for a black one....
- reposition my rear side speakers over to my rear parcel shelf
- get new ///M floor mats

I'm afraid the list never stops for me....

Thanks Apryl

Yeah I've been busy working on the ///M for my upcoming 2014 season

Today I picked up and installed my OEM CSL bootlid I still have to do some minor adjustments but the fitment is what I expected - perfection
Here are a few pics of my installed OEM CSL bootlid Yeah, I have a lot to smile about right now

This was taken while at my friend's body shop where the bootlid was resprayed. He matched the TiAg perfectly...


Can't get over how awesome the clear looks on my new bootlid!


These bootlids were manufactured in Italy for BMW...



The two bootlids together...only time I will ever see this....

What was amazing is that the Scorza CSL rep bootlid happens to be much lighter than the OEM CSL bootlid I replaced it with...

In order to thread the wiring harness to the bootlid, I had to take off these plugs since the channels inside the bootlid was much tighter...


Once this was done, routing the wiring harness was very easy with help of a wire hanger to help snake the harness thru...


Here is the new bootlid mounted on the ///M....finally!








Driver's side has a slightly bigger gap over the passenger's side....this is where I have to do some slight adjustments but I will do this tomorrow...enjoying the rest of the day taking it easy




I've always wanted to have the OEM CSL bootlid mounted on the ///M but couldn't justify spending the $2500 to buy this bootlid. I ended up getting this bootlid from a forum member at M3Forum for a very decent price so I had to move on this....I'm glad I did
