Danyutz Posted September 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 If you refer to led bulbs, those were already changed, 1st thing after i bought the car.Yes I have plans, more updates after this weekend, as I'm flying to Amsterdam - we're scheduled for BMW 2 Series Active Tourer training.

Danyutz Posted September 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Here's some updates for the interior, been craving doing this - but removing the steering wheel was keeping me back. So, leather steering wheel and knob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danyutz Posted September 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 It's the original Mattie, just retrimmed in leather + red stitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Badbrains Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Did you do that upholstery yourself? Looks sweet, I need that to be done too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyutz Posted September 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Oh no, i took it to a fella that works with leather.Also fitted the led side indicators and gave the car a wash. And the Check Engine and EPC light has came on, i'll put it to the vcds, see what's wrong.Other update include a set of original 13" trims for the winter wheels, been looking for those the entire year. I'll end this modding year with the spoiler being fitted soon. Edited September 16, 2014 by Danyutz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowrider Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 That wheel...it's..it's beautiful! Man, I can't wait to get mine done. It's the only thing that's ruining the interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyutz Posted September 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Today was maintenance day, decided to do the rear brakes, as the right wheel was somewhat braking and squeaking on lower speeds and the left one was leaking brake fluid. Also changed the handbrake cables. I was expecting some rust, but i wasn't expecting to look like it sat on the bottom of the river, this is the right wheel.The left one was even worse.But all sorted now, next up is fixing those damn windows and fit the spoiler.

Danyutz Posted October 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 (edited) And this happened! Finished late at 9 PM and didn't manage to clean the car, excuse the dirt. Switching the boot cables and all were a PiTA! But 100% satisfied. Expect better pics soon.Also bought a can of plasti dip for the interior trims.@jbarrows and @blue loop - send them over boys, with a pair of OEM roof bars Cheers!

Danyutz Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 ^Thanks!Took advantage of the nice weather and Saturday I repainted the pillar inserts in flat black, as they were having some rust signs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 How hard was it to do Dan? I have 3 sets that need removing off cars and doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyutz Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Don't remove them, i carefully masked around them with tape, dressed the door inside-out in paper and sprayed with opened door. Also masked the rear quarter of the car - basically where you think the spray vapors would end.I did this in my dad's garage, not outside - i'll take a pic with the outcome.
