What have you done with or to your M3 today?

MaximusB · 07-28-2020, 12:44 PM

Had an excellent weekend. Did two back to back track days at Area 27 (somewhat local to me, 4.5hr drive one way).

First time on this track and it was quite the learning experience. Very technical track with 3 blind corners, lots of elevation changes.

Booked it back home yesterday to pick up our new puppy from the breeder. Managed to make the 4.5hr drive in under 4hr lol.

All in all it was a hectic weekend. But gained more track experience and a new best friend, couldn't be any better.

Here are a few pictures:

Bought an MPE V2, anxious to compare it to my Eisenmann Sport. Also an oil change kit, woo.

thank you for quickly buying that MPE V2 for E90
because otherwise I would have been tempted to buy it myself

wyatth · 07-28-2020, 08:02 PM

Lol, happy to help!

Give us an update soon!

ItsGary · 07-29-2020, 02:38 PM

Been extremely busy. Need to do an oil change on the car.

//steve\\ · 07-29-2020, 03:08 PM

Drove it to run an errand earlier.

I really need to finalize tweaking ride height so that I can go get it aligned. And I still have a whole list of other small stuff I'd like to knock out that I've been putting off for far too long.

Finally came around to removing my tint. I personally think our cars without tint or the clear tint looks much cleaner...

End product came out amazing and I'm so happy with how she looks without the tint.

The rear window was f*ucking HELLLL! I'm 6'1 so getting back there facing the rear getting the left over adhesive off was horrid.

All in all, I'm happy and I saved about 100-150 buckos from having someone else remove it.

You sound like a keeper, she's lucky to have you.

Finished up, and added these OVER priced tips. They should have come in the box! This is the quietest aftermarket exhaust I have ever bought. Not mad at all, I was looking for stealth. Dont buy AKRA if you are looking for noise, you will be disappointed big time!

Looks awesome! Odd question, but any chance you know the dimensions of that shipping box?

Agreed, especially with a nice interior :P!

I actually had a way harder time removing my side windows' tint on my E92. Rear was the easiest part with heat to pull it off as one big sheet.

Yes, ESPECIALLY if you have a nice interior. I'd love to switch from my two tone black/red to all fox red interior. The red would pop big time without the tint..

To bad I can't come around any Fox red interior. They get snatched in a heart beat!

chocstraw · 07-30-2020, 04:49 PM

Fishbowl is underrated!

BMW used a nice color of glass for this era of cars.

Ideally I'd like 80% heat-rejecting all around but it's $$$$$
