Found this on my doorstep this morning

It was addressed to my wife, and I think it means I'm getting a little more than just the M3 for my birthday. What could it be?

I don't know if having mods before the car will make the wait easier or harder.

Leave it alone. It's for your wife's new car. She picks it up tomorrow.

I bought all mine before the car arrived...and...getting something in the mail for it, every week or two, actually helped the time pass.

Yeah seriously do. We were hit with a tornado in June and there are a couple of things that are still outstanding. My contractor does good work, and is cheap, but is pretty slow.

Thanks for the kind words, she is definitely a keeper.

Looks a bit small for the grilles/gill/refectors combo! Maybe just Grilles and perhaps reflectors? Lucky you!

Oh yeah, it makes the wait WORSE, not better.

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!
