So....

Some mods have started. Nothing fitted yet, waiting for them to arrive!

F80 M3 wing mirrors - had to be done! Will need painting Pure Blue first!



G Series NBT touch controller - should compliment the ID6 that's been coded!

Nope, not had it done yet. However, I will be getting it done soon hopefully!

It will be going to DDB Detailing in North Shields - David really knows his stuff and has done my last two cars to an incredible standard!

Having being a dealers car for the last 9 months sadly they have installed OEM swirls into the Individual Paint!!

ID6 mate. Is it just a coding process to update to the new operating system?

ID6 - ok....

So if your iDrive has the list type menu then I cannot code ID6

If you have the tiles, iD5, then I can code it.

I can also supply and fit full ID6 retrofits with carplay and android screen mirroring, PM me if you want futher info.

Hi wibbles my car is a Dec 16 MY F31 with the updated iDrive5 with the tiles rather than the list. Please can you let me know how to code this to ID6 ?

Is it something to do with this ? - "Change NBT/HMI_ID_VERSION to id6_light."

Cheers

Another quick update... ordered a custom retrimmed wheel from Ledermanz in Latvia. He's done my last two cars, and the quality looks great once again!

Will update with better pics once it's arrived & has been fitted!

It's nappa leather with alcantara & blue cross stitch. Also opted to have the centre trim done in alcantara too & he's supplying a set of F8x paddles also!

Quick update for the build...

M3 mirrors are being painted & should be fitted by the end of next week with any luck!

I also happened upon a brand new genuine M Performance body kit for the car on the F3x FB page, quick PM and I managed to get a decent (but fair) bargain on it!

Pick this up at the weekend and unsure of what to do with regards to paint?







Just need to source the roof spoiler now!!

Also forgot for some reason to put a couple of fitted pics of the steering wheel up.

It was done last week!
