+love the seat protection while working on your car...

The black E46 isn't a CSL right? Don't think I see a CF roof.

I know they weren't sold there, but supposedly it's easier to import them into CA than the US.

It is not a CSL. 😞

Installed an Apple Carplay emulator unit to my CIC system (bought from Alibaba), and gave her a wash yesterday.

I got the Kremersino unit: https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/...Id=33009517630

Arrived in less than a week w/free shipping, all in for ~$300.

I'm just getting to know it, but I do like it so far. I posted more impressions on the Carplay thread here: https://www.m3post.com/forums/showpo...&postcount=254

Wow your felt corner looks immaculate!

InnerBlueSkies · 06-24-2019, 12:11 PM

I've been eyeing these for 5 years, 1472 days, finally pulled the trigger, should go well with my interior.

Ashm3_uk · 06-24-2019, 12:31 PM

Got my seats done today...
The bolsters were pretty worn.
Got both front seats done.

Before and after shots...

They were replaced when I bought the car a year ago. Since then they haven't hit much.

Now today I will trap an alligator.

Just ticked 70,000 miles.

This is when I realized that my car is actually aging backwards. I like to think of the e9x platform like a bottle of wine....

It only gets better with age. Well... here is to another 70,000 kick ass miles and smiles.

Cheers lads!!!

Drove it 530 miles to New Orleans. The 1 and only valet guy at the hotel that has ever touched the car was super cool and very professional (hotel is valet only, secured garage). He actually did a walk around and I signed saying there was no pre existing damage, so let's hope it stays that way!

Timujin · 06-24-2019, 06:06 PM

Finalized oil change from yesterday and she took 9 liters exactly. Oil drained for about 2 hours. Did the push to start and release brake a few times to lube her up before running her as she was pretty dry.
