I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..

Re: SviRu black venom
Lovely looking car, I think the lines of the Wiesmann hardtop look great and really suit the Z.
Re: SviRu black venom
Thanks everyone for warm words
Still hamann hardtop is top of the top
I must agree! At the beginning I didn't notice any major differences with OEM hardtop... but now... yes it is much better looking!Brian H wrote:Lovely looking car, I think the lines of the Wiesmann hardtop look great and really suit the Z.

Re: SviRu black venom
I made some Photoshoping with angel eyes. What do you guys think?
Re: SviRu black venom
I love that look! ...but then again, I am a little biased.

OEM for me every time, unless you can get the set that Shanty made, now they were cool.
P.S. don't go putting you wipers on though as you are missing a wiper blade

Re: SviRu black venom
That is one very, very nice looking zed
Like the look of the angel eyes, but also like the look of it with standard headlights.
And them wheels are probably the greatest looking wheels that anyone could ever fit to their zed. I would love a set

Re: SviRu black venom
Love it! I wouldn't change the headlights personally, standard or OEM+ if you were to add your own projector lights in the standard housing. I'm working on my own atm, but I'm going slow!
What's it lowered on? Definitely not standard!

I prefer the bumper you have currently in your photoshopped pic with the angel eyes.

Re: SviRu black venom
Wow- this is a great looking Zed. Great shine, but keep car as in top photo.
The Carline bumper is ugly and just takes away from a stunningly beautiful car.

After a year I can see some serious one. It just looks much better. Still Hamman v2 is NO1 when it comes to hardtops
The only thing I hate about this hardtop is this rubber seal around the rear window... it's absolutely awful. I wonder if there is any way to get rid of it.
Re: SviRu black venom
Just tried it on very quickly

Re: SviRu black venom
Every time someone fits ACS wheels to a Z3, God resurrects a kitten. Great looking car!!
My 2p: Keep the original bumper, I quite like the "big mouth" version of the Z3 bumper. Maybe just add splitters/lips to the sides of the bumper, for more aggressive stance. Also, keep the original headlights - they look much better than the aftermarket angel eyes, IMHO. Only mod I'd do to the lights is to add halos for the "big" angel eye effect.

1. I don't like 2.8 bumper. It looks like an old Transformers type thing. It doesn't follow the nice curves of the car. It is very heavy and bulky It makes the car look unaggressive opposite to z3m bumper.janijoeli wrote:Every time someone fits ACS wheels to a Z3, God resurrects a kitten. Great looking car!!

With my rieger lip (sold) it looks much much better - but still it sucks compared to z3m. And z3m with acs splitters - cmon! But ofc - imho only
2. Led AngelEyes in oem lights.

I like it - but then I'm biased... People who like these changes are in the minority, just remember.... It's your car - your opinion. And if you keep the original then you can always revert it back if needed whenever you sell it
Re: SviRu black venom
Lovely car. I would drop the Chrome around the windscreen and shadow chrome the handles and gills.

Re: SviRu black venom
Very nice, I would remove the chrome around the windscreen, that's just my opinion
Re: SviRu black venom
Couldn't do that . I love this chrome line stuff. It makes it even more special amongst already special specimenCaptain wrote:Very nice, I would remove the chrome around the windscreen, that's just my opinion
Thanks for nice opinions tho! Still work in progress!
Re: SviRu black venom
OEM New chrome grill in place.
Re: SviRu black venom
I really like the chrome surround. Suits the car well.

Very imbalanced. The cars on the right track, but I'm not a personal fan of the spoiler.

For test purposes only - z3m wing mirror fitted.
Re: SviRu black venom
By the way, as I now live in Holland, I'd be interested at what value you place the car at (in Euros)?
