Nice, I haven't seen that lip before, but I dig it. Do you have a front shot that's a little further back that shows all the way from left to right? And do you have a side profile shot the shows how far the lip stocks out?

This body shop is gonna catch these hands. I sent them the link to my tail lights that even confirm they're OEM from a dealership in the UK and the guys like this doesn't really show anything. Like I gave you the receipt too. How fucking stupid can you actually get. They failed to follow protocol. Damages are over $2kCDN.

I'm a lawyer and sometimes when you really back people into a corner, instead of something intelligent, they default to the smart person version of this, which is "I disagree with your characterization of the document."

I.e. this says something I wish it didn't so I'm just gonna say I don't think it says that.

Always good for a nice lil blood pressure spike.

Haha yeah, I just sent them an email with timeline of what has happened and included pictures of absolutely everything even screenshots of the receipt and sales page + seller information. If its not resolved "peacefully" I'll be pursuing legal action.

What's your mileage? Also if you have a link to those maps, I'd appreciate it. Thanks

ItsGary · 11-29-2018, 08:49 PM

Drove it, and then test drove an E92 M3 as my friend is looking to get one. Also got to sit in another one of my dream cars. I know its a tacky car but I really like it for what it is, the BMW i8.

Raek · 11-30-2018, 12:02 AM

Went and looked at it in the garage

Haven't taken it out in a minute...ugh! Anyway, here's a pic.

Daeem she's clean Raek! Still plan to sell Spring time or decided to rack up some decent miles first mate?

cae93 · 11-30-2018, 02:21 PM

Wrapped the "chrome" trim around the windows and roof, I think it smooths out the rather odd roof line on the '93.

Satin black wrap seems to accentuate the blue in the Jerez "Black" under the parking structure lights.

Apologies in advance to all the photographers out there for the quality of the pic, will do better ones once the rain stops.

Bought myself an expensive Christmas present. 🥴

PAM3Guy · 11-30-2018, 06:43 PM

Added some festive holiday lights. Couldn't resist. 😁

Was busy the last little while, so I finally got the blower motor recall done at the dealer today!

Which dealer did you go to? My blower motor got louder after they did the recall.

wfdeacon88 · 12-01-2018, 11:59 AM

found a gas station out in the sticks with 93 ethanol free... which I guess here is rare. I can definitely tell a difference. Idle is flawless and smoother.
