So if I put an Alpina Badge and some Alpina alloys.. does that make mine an Alpina then.. haha.. and a very rare 2.0 Alpina too... lol.
The proof of the pudding is in the eating, bauty is in the eye of the beholder, Your Z is what ever you consider it to be, the rest of us will just give you that rye old KNOWING smile.lol

M sport seats and steering wheel were an option on the 2.8, and I have them. The Alpina wheels were on it too when I bought her, and I'm glad because they look great, (and they are worth a bit!)

Everyone has their own ideas of what their Z should look like and that's how it should be.

For myself, I like to look at and take my Z3 in as a whole, not have my eyes drawn to big wheels, contrasting chrome gills, bright coloured brake calipers, STICKERS;) etc. etc.. When I look at Z3lda I just see her pure form and shape, and my eyes are drawn along her curves from nose to tail. Viewed from behind, (as I painted her exhaust pipes Hammerite black), there is again nothing to draw my gaze from the whole, the rear haunches reminding me of a big cat waiting to launch itself at it's prey, and the camber of it's rear wheels showing it's sporting promise. So you see, I have all I desire visually in a car. I'm very lucky.

Mind you , I am thinking of a little remap and front and rear body braces, but of course you can't see those.:)

Oh dear , I have M tec peddle kit and h/brake handle, but don't forget all you M owners, copying is supposed to be the highest form of flattery. I wouldn't go so far as badging but hey,don't winge,you've got what some of us would give our hind teeth for, me anyways, but just couldn't afford to run one. Don't get offended, just smile a rye old KNOWING smile. Roy (Rha)
Yeah a wry smile from me when I look at your spelling. Peddle indeed! Huh.:ymdevil:

No need to knock my spelling young fella specially as we've never met, I might not be the brightest spark in the straight six, but I sure wouldn't put the other 5 down. Lol
Thanks for the young fella bit!:D

It's only wrong if you have a different interpretation to my meaning........

Here's one I spotted at one of the shows I went to. Apologies for the focus but I was amused.

I just want to add that using M badges doesn't make me mad, it is trying to sell off the car as an M that makes me mad.
