Had my Z3GT back from Tribute for a couple of weeks , Geoff .

Very nice!

That colour is great! Really suits it.

I think a moulded rear screen would be better to keep the lines straight as the Micra one starts to curve in at the edges but that's just me.

Looks like a GB scuttle could help it - the Z3 screen is always a bit long and would be nice visual enhancement with chrome screen surround.

Hoping you keep the colour - nice one

Much nicer with the proper bonnet. I think Smash is right about the rear window.

Bonnet option works well, I like the open scoop too ! Whilst I have gone for dark blue paint I had thought of Aston Racing Green or similar shade. "Illusive" blue would also look the part if you wanted a retro blue.

Afternoon just a few more pics taken today .

Well done! Especially like those door handles.
Where did you source them?

Look like external Fiat Barchetta handles. Very pretty

Correct Fiat Barchetta , Geoff .

nice, thanks.

Just had these installed , Geoff .

Hi Geoff, have you got any updates on your build? What colour did you go for in the end?

Evening Simon my car is currently at the body shop for paint , the colour i am going for is (Aqua Verdi Caliente) , probably going to be 2 to 3 more weeks . thanks Geoff.

I had to google that colour....jesus that is going to look beautiful! Please post some photos when you get her back?

Casamolino - who did the bonnet modification? Looks amazing.
Hoping you post some ‘after paint’ pics.
Wish I could somehow work out how to have a z3 updated and then shipped to the US. Your car is going to stop people in the streets so that they can take pics of it!

Good morning Munky , bonnet mods courtesy of Chris at Tribute , all things being equal ,body/paint should be complete in a couple of weeks , although my paint-shop guy has a very fluid understanding of time , thanks Geoff .

It’s looking wonderful!
You got me looking for donors last night. Managed to find a 120k mile Z3M for $8k but the wife would kill me.
I’m still waiting for my Caterham kit to be shipped from the UK.
I think seeing yours painted may tip the balance.
Good luck with the painter!

Merry Xmas , New Year new car (well resprayed) , Geoff .

Car is back from paint shop , interior next .

oh wow yes please

that is very nice indeed

Looks great Geoff !

Looks fantastic!
I bet your amazingly happy with it!
Thanks for sharing.

Cheers guys really happy , guy spent considerable time on panel gaps , made up with paint , Geoff .

Just recd my updated V5C back from Swansea to show change of colour etc , make is know TRIBUTE Z3GATO no mention of BMW anywhere , Geoff .

Good afternoon before i advertise these seats on Ebay i thought i would put them here , they are a pair of Cobra Cub seats bought brand new and the covered front and back in Leather by Rich at Cheshire Car Trim , probably only used for about 50 mile , guess what the other half does not like them so they have to go , complete with the runners , main selling points are they are the narrowest seats i could find! are suitable where Headrests are reqd for MOT , minimal use , £550.00 for the pair plus carriage .
