Thank you! It's from Seibon.

Got the plenum install. Really like this mod!

Then went for a drive. A few more pictures in the Photos subforum.

SaMaster18 · 11-25-2022, 05:32 PM

Switched out the chrome grilles for Autotecknic CF ones! I also did the mirror caps. Adding a rear spoiler is next!

jvictormp · 11-26-2022, 09:59 AM

Summer is coming

And the Apexs arc-8 have arrived.

fronts are 18x9.5 et22
rears are 18x10.5 et27
painting anthracite.

Front is on Eibach pro springs, rear is on stock springs.

Spacers 10mm on all four.

NiBe · 11-26-2022, 03:03 PM

Finally she will have the wheels she deserves.

Johnny E92 · 11-27-2022, 07:18 PM

Not much but a good improvement all the same. Fitted the Lux angel eyes, looks better in real life than the phone photo.

e92zero · 11-27-2022, 10:24 PM

196k bearing replacement and F8x M3 brake, front hub, and flange upgrade:

Winter is coming...I did my seasonal maintenance.
1) Take off the E88s with P4S4s and put on the ZCPs with ALPINs

2) Oil change (I'm only driving it 5k/year, so I change the oil when I swap wheels)

3) Replaced leaking hose between coolant overflow tank and the motor. Looks like it may have been "leaned on" or something, because the nipple part that inserts into the water pump was broken off...and stuck inside the port. It's always something!

it's been happening for a while but I haven't been keeping good track of it
it happened after the last fill up

There is a product on Amazon that works great to remove the scratches. Novus plastic clean and shine

Or he can sand it down. Start with 400 grid then 1200 then 2000 then polish it and then buy a new display. Problem solved.

+2 on the Novus plastic polish. My iDrive screen was also scuffed. So I've also used the Novus 3 step system to remove the anti-glare coating. Then I put a tablet anti-glare film (cut to size) back on.

No problem! It's a bitch to get in there. So don't just clean it, replace it.

I didn't throw any codes at all.

+3 and couldn't have been happier with the results.

Helmsman · 11-29-2022, 04:30 AM

That time of the year... Not much driving in the snow these days but replaced the 10y old winters with new Alpin 6s for the cold sunny days. While at it did the yearly proper cleaning of the 359s...

Age is just a number! It's my inability to reach the pedals that holds me back.

He's happy to help with the wheels and rinsing.
