Put in the "UR Windschott" glass deflector, massive difference in visibility and it looks nice.

Quadlock magnetic vent mount for my iPhone. Works nicely, better than my old Brodit one but need to keep a case on the phone at all times now.

Stuck the Z4 and M40i brushed aluminium emblems back on the trunk lid.

Getting XPEL installed today on the entire front, hood, headlights, mirrors, doors and sills.

Can take pics if wanted when I get the car back tomorrow.

If you have the gloss black interior trim have them put PPF there also. Tell the installer that Xpel has the templates for the interior on their website. Also make sure they cover the A pillars.

Definitely post some pictures!

Got the aluminium thing, otherwise I'd definitely have them wrap that too!

Side marker tint

Lamin-X makes several tint and film protection products for the G29. I purchased the side marker covers and door handle cup guards from them around a year ago and am quite pleased with them. For the side marker cover, I chose the Smoke color which turned out to be a bit lighter than I expected, would have chosen the Charcoal color if I'd known. My Z4 is in the black sapphire color and I was trying to hide the side markers so Charcoal would have been a better choice for that.

Center Console Trim Cover

I ran across this carbon fiber center console trim piece on Amazon. I am contemplating this to cover my piano black console. Unfortunately, no ratings or reviews on the item. It's probably coming direct from China, perhaps a buyer beware item but the price is enticing.

Did you use the sticky putty pull method to remove the original start/stop button?

Yes. The Start button removal was easy. Just cover the entire button, wait for a few seconds, and pull.

I'm going to need to start thinking about winter wheels/tires in the next month or two. Does anyone have these? If so, could you post some pictures?

My only beef besides the $4220 cost for the set of four is not knowing what tires will be on them. I know at one point they came with Continental Winter Contact TS830P tires but who knows if that's still the case. I'd prefer to build my own set at tirerack.com.

More significant, recent searches indicate they're discontinued and no longer available.

Hmm, thank you. I may have to look at tire rack.

I recently purchased this liner for my 2023 Z4. It fits properly and the material feels premium. I would recommend it over WeatherTech given the cost.

82-11-2-473-374 G29 Z4 Luxury Sunshade

This accessory was posted in another thread so I thought I would share it here for anyone looking for a sun shade:

82-11-2-473-374 G29 Z4 Luxury Sunshade

According to BMW, https://www.shopbmwusa.com/product/8377/BMW-UV-SUNSHADE it only works on vehicles without option ZDA Driving Assistance Package so that leaves me out. I'm trying to track down the part number for the sun shade that works with the Driving Assistance Package.

No-drill Front License Plate Mount

I don't have my front license plate mounted but bought this Sto-N-Sho mount for rare situations where I may need to display it. It uses existing screws on the bottom of the bumper cover. I suspect it also works on '23 and '24 models.
