It's just too bougie for me. People who get purple get purple to be weird. They don't actually like it. Needs to be said. Lol

I love purple! It's a really undervalued color, but something about the industry's obsession with blue and red makes it a difficult option.

Purple can be rich, but in the different hues it can look hokey. I can see a nice deep purple with matte gold wheels looking just as classy as British racing green does.

My wife had decided she was tired of her Miata. So I guess the E92 is back to being a track car again

Wish I still had them, they got sold with my car
The color was amazing in person, had a paint shop find the Lamborghini Viola Parsifae color and paint them in it and it was worth every penny. I think it was like $500 to paint all four.

Right on… I need a track set of wheels. Currently using my gunmetal PURPLE Volk g50s but they're 19s, need 18s. I'm going to order some Titans but who knows if and when I'll get them in this current world climate.

Titans are worth the wait, great wheels.
If not in a huge hurry, Black Friday deals are right around the corner...

There's 10% off at auto talent and free shipping for Labor Day, I wonder if the BF sale will be any more significant..

Is there a good spot to access the CAN BUS? I searched and surprisingly didn't find anything obvious… nothing obvious to me anyways, but I'm kinda on the dumb side.

The manual for this wing says what goes where, but they don't spoon feed it to you with pictures of your specific car.

Anyone looking for Camber arm spherical bearing kit from bimmerworld or lemforder spherical bearings for trailing arm, or the washers Redd made to use those lemforder bearings in the stock upper rear arms?

I'm going a different direction with the bushings.

The Combox in the back trunk area should have CANBUS. If not, I think the PDC module has it. I remember vaguely it when I retrofitted my Combox module.
