What have you done with or to your M3 today?

turbo_joe · 11-02-2017, 06:40 AM

Played in the rain at Summit Point on Sunday. Was my first HPDE, had a blast and learned a ton. The NT-01 is not the best tire for a wet track

Thanks! Nope there's a print shop that I frequent that does die cuts and prints.

You should consider... For a small fee doing for those who wouldn't be able to figure out how. They can ship you their trim and then you ship it back.

I was thinking the same thing! Or possibly just get the vinyl printed out and shipped to us to apply ourselves.

Looks like a rear tire? Pretty typical.

Edit: Glad you made it home safe.

Print and ship is pretty easy to do but the design work probably has to be on an hour basis. My design took about 16 hours to vector plus a couple hours for the mockup.

Wow, that's no small venture. Certainly a 1 of 1 dash trim. I would love you to do one of my face and put it in the wife's car. I'm sure she would feel like I'm watching her drive even when I'm not there. But I would kinda be there.

30000 miles and a wrap around on ramp everyday on the way home from work

. That and I should have replaced sooner. Now I'll be bumming rides or ubering it until tires come in Monday or Tuesday.

Buttoned up the alignment, oil change and sample sent to Blackstone, new PFC pads/DOT 4 fluid, new NGK plugs, realigned headlights (too high for my liking), replaced a stuck passenger air vent, and eliminated a rattle in the dash.

It's a new car!

Prefontaine · 11-03-2017, 09:53 PM

Oil/filter change, and front pad sensors replaced (brake pad replacement message kept coming up despite good pads).

StripclubDJ · 11-04-2017, 04:41 AM

Getting my carpet line game on point, and another polish job done

About 12-15, Some are double days.

Washed. Glide. Glaze. Sealant. Wax. Quick detail. Polished tips. Cleaned and dressed wheels. Stoners on glass. Lubed and greased vert top pins and seals.

Used Rupes LHR21es. Thanks for recco CC

DreamTime · 11-04-2017, 10:12 AM

Was out of town and came home this morning to a box of suspsension parts waiting for me! Exciting!

Not sure if this counts since I did not do anything to my car with them yet... But, I’m going to have to wait to do the work until the rest of my backordered Bilstein parts come in Dec or Jan. Let’s see how patiently I can wait.

in my experience, yes swapping them you can eliminate and pinpoint which one is throwing an issue, but most coil-packs eventually all fail roughly together around the same mileage.

This is good to know. I recently had to replace cylinder 1 & 8 coils when they crapped out. I was considering just replacing all of them since it seemed like the right thing to, but wasn't sure if it was really necessary. Thanks for helping answer my question before I asked it!

ItsGary · 11-04-2017, 03:22 PM

So after a long wait and not knowing where my car went cause the insurance company didn't tell me they're going to follow through with the repairs I finally got it back.

Picture taken at the body shop, hood was just popped for the headlight.

Nice. We were driving around the upstate of SC today and it was amazing. Peak fall color and perfect weather.
