Seriously, when a guy with ape hangers is waiting to get around you, it's time to move it over.

Whoever bought Mike's? lol

Saw a black e92 with wheels, BBK, and I couldn't tell what else on Shepherd between Kirby and Memorial. This was yesterday as I was nursing my R-compounds home after a surprise shower.

Ajax, saw your car heading west on I-10 last Friday, about ten miles east of the exit for the Hennessey shop. I was heading into Houston. Definitely yours by the looks of the lip and wheels.

Oh no! I've been spotted.

Its actually an Akra exhaust. I saw you, but didn't get a chance to give you a thumbs up. What wheels are you running? They looked like 18" VMRs. I've been eyeballing the HRE Fall-Lines, but I don't want to pay that much and I want to have them made to my own specifications instead of the Fall-line standard issue. Your wheels looked really sharp on your car!

I actually spotted another M3 on the way home from work. It was a pre-LCI E90 in SSII. I've seen this car a couple of times, they always exit downtown from 30 headed east. Anyone on here?

I'm with you on the Fall Lines, I think I may go with the R40s, but that's after suspension and brakes.

Sorry I couldn't tell exactly what exhaust you had, I just took a guess. Akra is very nice, do you have the full system or just the catback? Thanks! Yes, I have the 18" VMR V701s. It's hard to beat the value of these wheels, $850 shipped to your door is great. Your car looked great as well, very clean. I was just a little frustrated with the traffic on woodwall yesterday. BTW, nice plate!

I have only the Akra skip-on for now. I was pretty frustrated with the traffic too. At the point when I saw you, I had been driving for almost an hour. Regarding the plate, yup, I'm a dork. I still have mixed feelings about having one. Do you know any details about the weights of the 18" VMRs? I have never seen the specs, but if the weight is decent, I might look at those as an alternative to the higher priced HREs.

Yeah me to, I was driving home from Ft. Worth so I was stuck in traffic for a long time, over an hour. I'm not sure about the weight of the VMR but I'm sure there is some info online somewhere about them, or you can call one of the vendors and I'm sure they can tell you what the weight is.

Same here, but I think it's because I don't leave the Highland Park/Lakewood/Uptown bubble.
