It looks all business, best money spent on the engine IMO. That ghetto sticker will come off, don't worry. It will be replaced with a " BMW M Power " sticker. Tomorrow, the engine goes back in super happy !!!

Never seen a similar CF box, looks pretty cool

Where do you get your new parts from? I mean the bits and pieces such as covers?

I know, it was a night shoot and iphone 4 sucks in those conditions. Hopefully today I'll get better shots.

Thanks. My service imports them directly from Germany. Slightly cheaper than stealer prices.
