F80 M3 30 Jahre UK - modified

So it's been some time since I posted about my M3 30 Jahre edition.

Since then I've done the following:

Installed the alcantara armrest
Installed M Performance Suspension coilovers and lowered the car
Added carbon fibre side blades/skirts

So first of all here is the Alcantara armrest, photos by the technician Dan @ Sytner:













Then the suspension install:

The box of kit


Look at those brakes!




First set off


All four corners off




First set going on






The car went through various height settings:

(The current setup, maybe the rear to go up slightly)










And here are some of the shots taken today at 2 or 3 different heights:











































Since then it had to go up slightly due to local clearance issues:



Then the carbon side sills:







Getting there, spacers to go on tomorrow and I am still waiting on:
Carbon fibre seat backs
Carbon fibre rear wing (M Performance)

imo, I would drop the front even with the rear. if it damages the front lip than a) get a new lip or b) go w/o a front lip.

The M perf suspension is the same P/N in Europe and the States? Your kit looks like it allows the car to be lowered more.
