I hope it helps. I'm sure we're doing a lot wrong with our dogs but they seem to be well adjusted and happy.

Gave up searching for some mint used MP mirror caps so went with AutoID full carbon replacement caps. Super happy with them. Fitment and weave is on point!

Absolutely torn between keeping wheels silver now or going satin black...

If I was you I’d keep them silver. Looks fresh and pops as is

That’s sort of how I feel. I just hate it you’ve been out for a drive and they turn that really dusty dull grey colour. It bugs my OCD lol.

IMO a dusty satin black wheel looks worse than a dusty silver wheel. You should ceramic cost the wheels to help minimize dust

Did my last lap on the Spa Francorchamps track (Belgium) this season.

Sorry about inaccurate and jumping spidometer reading, due to inaccuracy of the GPS in my mobile phone. Had to use RaceChrono app this time instead of precise RaceBox.

Track: Spa Francorchamps
Car: BMW M3 E92
Tires: Michelin Pilot Sport 4S
Best lap: 2.58.03
Timekeeping: RaceChrono
Video: Insta360 One R 1-inch
Post: RaceRender 3 + Davinci Resolve
Organizer: Gold Track UK

Euro front bumper along with black hood vents and side gills should arrive in the next week or two and I can't wait! Been over a month now of anticipation!

Will post some photos once it's installed

Recently done:
1. Installed an used Akrapovic slip on exhaust.
2. Replaced rear window rubber seal (bought from FCPEuro).
3. Polished rear window with griot's garage Fine Glass Polish, removed all waterspot.

Currently love the Akrapovic exhaust + stock x-pipe + AA test pipe setup. I have ACM mod exhaust before akra and it is too loud for me in my neiborhood. I lived on the hill and ACM's 2krpm drone is also a big pain for me to climb the steep neibor road.
Compare the stock exhaust, it also saved about 30lb, it is super easy to install it by myself.

OEM exhaust muffer: 50lb.
Akrapovic Slip on: 20lb.

I also have a AA x-pipe which I have not installed, I just want to stick with OEM middle pipe for a while until I want more HP or may be a little bit more sound?

Drove out for a while today, really happy with this exhaust mod, best craftmanship and I can feel fast accleration obviously.

a pair of rear advan ad052 275/35 R19 for my ZCP e92

Added a indicator light for when the secondary fuel pump kicks on under boost. Not knowing was giving me more gray hairs.

[Blindside_137]

Wiped down most of the leatherique. Still have some to clean off and want to finish with my swissvax leather milk as a conditioner.

Overall happy with using the two. I think next time I will plan to do leatherique in the summer when I can get the seats a lot warmer to soak up the rejuvenator.

Again no before pic. Doh! Only a during leatherique and after.

Looking good.

Are those OEM M359? Tire size?

Are you running spacers? What size?

[irokwrx]

Installed another low pressure sensor. So easy to get to without the air box. I am hopeful that this will solve my long crank problem. Also decided to look inside this catch can I rigged up. It's been about 1k miles and it has done its job.

[SnohoRaptor]

Thankful my son talked me into a last minute drive to have a beer with a buddy in Granite Falls.
Rain season is imminent and fall in the PNW is my favorite.

Yeah! OEM 359 with 255 35R19 front and 275 35R19 rear.
spacer front 12mm, rear 10mm.

My dead TPMS sensor came back to life this morning after a couple months of fault messages. Usually the light goes on when the temps go down, not the other way around. I'll take it!

FYI, $1k quote at the dealership to replace all four. I should have received an Emmy for keeping a straight face when the service rep told me.

Edit: Oscar or whatever

Nice!

What's been your issue? I had a TPMS malfunction. Dealer replaced all sensors then still had the error, so then replaced the centralized module and put back in the old sensors.

And I still have gotten a few pop up TPMS malfunction messages. But haven't had it for a few weeks so I'm at a loss. I'm hoping mine vanished like yours lol.

I also was having a TPMS Malfunction error. My code reader indicated that it was the right front tire. The error tended to show up on warmer days after some highway miles. Example I would drive to work (5-10 minutes side streets, 25 minutes highway, 5 minutes side streets) in AM without a code. In the afternoon on the way home the error would pop up a minute or two after getting off of the highway. Went to a shop to verify the sensors in the tire was sending a signal. The intermittent nature made me suspect a bad wire or some sort of heat related issue. I have an 2009 so there are antennas/transponders near each wheel. Fronts are attached to the wheel well liner. Took off tire and pulled out the front portion of the wheel well liner and disconnected the transponder. Inspected the wires and connector, nothing was obvious. I sprayed the connector and posts with electrical contact cleaner and reconnected. I haven't had the error since. However the weather has cooled down a bit.

Had free 20 minutes so I scanned my garage and grabbed the funnest car I own and flogged it for a bit on the completely empty twisties near my house.

[Bigtriece]

Replaced my drivers side low beam. What a PITA.

Holy $hit that's exactly what happened. I didn't put two and two together. I replaced and repaired my front belly panels this weekend and saw the passenger front connector dangling. I thought I knocked it loose somehow while working on the belly panels, so I just plugged it back in without giving it a second thought. It must not have been connected this entire time.
