Any 328i sport owners?
Discussion
Me too... 
Pics are on their way - just need to find somewhere to host them, especially as the profile pic doesn't do it justice anymore. I stole that from the autotrader ad when I got it and things have somewhat changed since... namely it getting a nice set of bbs's and a damn good clean and polish! (I have a serious complex about driving a dirty car!)
From seeing your pic, it could almost be a mirror image... sadly though the colour of mine isn't as nice as yours..
give me a shout sometime if you fancy meeting up, heard there was a meet at bluewater last night but sadly couldn't make it... also keep us posted on the 'tweaks' - that's next on my list of to do's so would love to hear how they progress... not to mention how much i need to save up!

Seeing as I've taken the time to clay bar, polish and was the bloody thing, and shoe it with new tyres for the replacement BBS wheels I grabbed cheap off ebay (5 for £132!) - I'm finally proud enough now to show a piccy:
I've cunningly taken the photo from the drivers side to hide the annoying dents I put in the roof
Hope you likey

wow! 
those wheels really finish it off as well - good old fleabay.
Neil what clay did you use? Mine needs a good once-over and something tells me T-cut isn't the best idea... once that's done I will get round to posting some pics.. i'm still at the 'it's not quite ready' stage
I'm also working on the interior in mine... been using the gliptone stuff and it's ridiculously good.. only trouble is that it requires some serious effort - note to self: don't buy a light cloured interior again...

Another Sport owner here although mine is slightly regrettably for sale as I have an MX5 bug I need to scratch. Probably the best all round car I've ever owned, or driven for that matter. Still looks great at 10 years old as well.
Cheeky link for anybody interested.

I use Meguires Step 1,2,3 kit (paint cleaner, polish and carnuba wax) after having used Meguires Clay bar and Detailing Spray.
Whats this Gliptone stuff?
I wasn't sadly.. not been yet, but it's definitely on the cards for next year... anyone fancy a 328i sport run down there? 
Neil the gliptone stuff i use is this http://www.liquidleather.com/
if you need more info do a search on here and it appears on loads of threads.. zymol is also meant to be good from what I've heard.
pic of the comparison when i started on the rear bench - scary stuff! and no it hasn't been doctored - they really were that bad!
