ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
After acquiring a set of ACS hoops from a member of the .Org site I thought I best get them fitted and give the car a spring clean !
Took a while to get them in as they are an extremely snug fit but with the help of a wooden mallet they went it
Also fitted a bespoke wind deflector courtesy of ('_')Z3 on here for making and sending it down (fits perfectly)
Then finally 4hrs polishing and waxing the car to a mirror shine
Oh and a little cruising before it got dark, now that's my kind of Sunday !!

Yea they do set the car off Jon, nearly as much as the tinted wind deflector !!!

Looking great Woody, they really suit the car.
Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
Fitted mine yesterday, expecting to have to use a bit of force, but they popped straight in. Only had to give a little tap on one side to even them up.
Your car is looking good!

Wish mine went in that easy, had to give them more than a little tap !!

Getting them in is one thing.... You try getting them out....!Woody1000 wrote:Wish mine went in that easy, had to give them more than a little tap !!

Looking good! I also bought ACS roll hoops with help this forum member, but before installing I want to wrap my custom subwoofer box behind the seats in leather so that I don't have to reinstall roll hoops several times to reduce the risk of damaging them.

Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
Looks great absolutely love this zed one of the best!
Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
Thanks for all the great comments and I have no intention of trying to get the hoops out ! They and now part of the car.
Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
Mine needed some brute force to get them level
It's funny that the last owner of your car really wanted a set and could not source them, even the original manufacturer let him down after a set were ordered

Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
I thought they were rare Jonttt but seems there are a few about looking at this thread !!
Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
They are rare, only recently a few (I had seen maybe 3 or 4 different offers) popped for sale And most of them were sold almost instantly.
Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
I had been looking out for over a year, with no luck, then a set became available last Nov (ish). Bought them, took my original hoops out (seller wanted to swap + cash) and then the seller went quiet. No response from him for a few weeks and then eventually he admitted that he had sold them with the car. Thought my chance had gone and then a few weeks ago another set came up on here, so dived in and bought them. Had issues with delivery (successful in the end) and whilst that is going on, low and behold another set come up on z3coupe - was tempted to buy them as well just in case the second set never arrived!
So yes, nothing for over a year and then 3 sets within a couple of months! At least it means 3 happy owners

Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
Now lets hope that no one will sell some more, otherwise they start loosing their exclusivity
Re: ACS hoops fitted and a little polish
Well I'm not selling mine ! Well I couldn't get them out anyway !!!
They really do look great on the Zeds though.
