After going with Alpine Motorsport for tuning the ECU, i contacted Alex and purchased the GTS DCT flash as well. Ordered the K-DCAN cable and setup the date and time for Alex to remotely connect.

Initial impressions are once again favorable, quicker shifts and much smoother and less clunky. I haven't really driven the car much over the last week, but i plan to get in some km's over the next few weeks, a long drive is on the cards too. With C19, we are kind of lockdown in Abu Dhabi. We can go to Dubai, but on return to Abu Dhabi we need to present a negative C19 result, then again after 6 days test again. Not much to drive around in Abu Dhabi, unless i go to Al Ain again (160km/h speed limit over a 100km distance) plus a nice twisty mountain road...

That cockpit looks like an incredible place to be <3 never thought iI'd enjoy red so much on the E9x but the more pics I look at in this thread, the more it grows on me!

Interior kitted with a custom set of dash and door trims.

If you scroll back to some of the first interior shots of my car, you will notice the Aluminum trim, signed by Bruno Spengler. Now, while this was special to the many and the previous owners, i felt it made the interior look shoddy. No offence to anyone, but i didn't particularly enjoy that part of the car.

After i had the steering wheel done by AZA, i was on the look out for a used set of trims, any trim as i had the idea to cover it in carbon leather and have the tri-color stitching to match the steering. Few weeks went on, searching locally and at the same time looking at options from abroad when i found a set of CF leather trim locally. A friend in Dubai had a look at them and did the deal.

Got them a few weeks later and was not really happy with the condition so parked them off and started the search for an upholsterer to do the recover and stitching. I didn't have to look very far as a friend i had met when i first moved here advised he can actually do it, himself. Needless to say, the job was done and impeccably so. I still need to take some proper focused shots of the interior, but here are some pics to give you an idea...








And some cool rollers!!
