Early morning photoshoot...

Changed out the bulbs in my tail light to LEDs, the halogen ones I had were pretty burned, I'm gonna have to get another 4 bulbs for the inner trunk bulbs.

Can someone verify how many lights we have?

4x bulbs on the outer pieces (2 on each side)


Is it 4 on the inner also? Plus reverse light bulbs?

Actually made a clip on the Borla + OEM mod but differences came out poor so didnt think it was worth loading it up.

Can you see the scratches? If you can’t see it then don’t worry about it, it happens. If the pothole is deep enough and you can’t avoid it then going slow isn’t gonna prevent you bottoming out. Most people with front lip including myself have scrapes underneath.

Yup, plus it's deep enough to see the yellow lines which means it went really deep.

Call the City and file a complain. They do cover damages caused by potholes. I know they do cover tire and wheel damage, as well as alignment. Not sure about bodywork. I made a claim several years ago, not a quick process but eventually the City paid for new tire. I'll PM you the details.

Thanks man. I didn't know that city covered it

New tires on the front after inner sidewall damage on right side.

Deja vu after having to do the same thing last year on rears for sidewall damage...

What would cause ticking from the left side of the engine bay

File a complaint, I hit a pothole once and bent my rim, got get a written estimate on how much it would cost to fix it plus file out a complaint form, and take a picture of the pothole and send it in. About a month later I got a check for like $300 from the city with no questions asked.

Finally got to enjoy driving the car some. Took it out to cars and coffee over the weekend. Driving from MD to FL tomorrow morning for Amelia Island

Doesn’t look that bad. Although you might want to address the undertray. Looks like your centre piece and driver side piece are ripped. It’ll eventually fall apart.

I’ll sell my stock undertray I aluminum piece so my stock piece is just sitting in storage.

I installed my MS under pulleys. I also removed the side gills as the old surrounds were plastidipped. I had some Performance ones and began the conversion. What a pain it is on the E90s.

I ended up taking the fenders off. That was an interesting task. I love learning about the inner workings of our cars. As a side note, the top bolt that holds the fender on and is located inside the the door where the hinges are, is a reverse thread. You turn it closkwise to loosen. Not sure what the logic is behind this!

I also pulled all my fender liners off to give them a good cleaning.

Tomorrow is gonna suspension day. Removing the KW HAS and installing KW V3s.

I may wait on this though...tax return looks good and I am inclined to put an order in at IND. Perhaps some Fall Line components and dare I say....RKP Carbon Fiber Roof

I too have been considering that carbon fiber roof!

Don’t buy a whole new belly pan just because of that. As soon as you buy a new one it’s gonna be 8 months before it looks like that all over again
