What brand of your carbon mirror cap? how's fitment?

It's an unbrand name. The fitment is decent. It's an 8/10. Could close the gap a bit more.

You going to put those stiffening pieces in or run them without?

Agree! I'm not sure why my photos get flipped when I post them sometimes. They open correctly on my PC before I post them.

Looks Awesome!

Im currently getting my KW V3s rebuilt and was looking to run Vorshlag Camber Plates.

Looks like they dont make them for Aftermarket coilovers, everyplace I look they are unavailable and available for OEM Sus

Replaced the 99mm pulley to a 96.5mm pulley from ESS on a VF kit and what a b!7ch it is to do.

Helmsman · 03-29-2021, 09:22 AM

Managed to drag my a... to the garage and replace the other Xenon. This time in addition to the inner fender also the filter box had to come out. For a lamp bulb - Designed to be serviced at the dealership...

My recently installed Recaro's lowered me quite a bit, so removing the arm rest makes way for your elbows when rowing through gears. It also saves like 2 lbs. And it looks cool because racecar.

Have you contacted them to see if/when they'll be available for your application?

There's always ground control as an alternative

Dropped it off for Rod Bearing Service

Is all that really necessary on the driverside? I have CBIs I've been wanting to swap

I've seen vids where they didn't take out the filter box but in order to reach the inner cover bolt it was much easier. And its a additional 5min.

Ps. Pro tip: there are 2-3 slightly longer screws dep on what side, tape them out on the inner fender while you remember where they belong...

I'm going to go for a drive after work today. Looking forward to it!

I managed to get this job done by just pulling down the finder liner. It's a bit tight but it works.

here you go:

One of the best mods for our cars

Edit: You have OEM style springs on the V3, unless you changed to a different spring than that came with it. Other wise the link I pasted is the ones you need. Just click the scroll down menu and choose KWV3 for strut style.

Accepted an alternative suggestion from the tire shop to save me having to wait another 10 weeks for a PS4 replacement from Michelin. They had a pair of 295/30's in stock that someone else had previously ordered and then backed out of buying.

They fit (with my spacers removed), but have a very different sidewall profile on the 359's compared to the stock size. I think I prefer it but the fronts look different.

Either way, it's great to have the car back on the road so I went for a quick topless run around the local lakes. Amazing weather we have in CA right now.

Next adventure will be a trip to MRF, hopefully sometime soon.

A few days ago, but did my first track day in my E92 M3

Made plenty of mistakes but at least I got the car home in one piece
