I do love the full aero look, but aero is pretty far down the list. Already have KW Clubsport coilovers. Currently in the process of swapping my suspension/subframe bushings to solid and partially stripping the interior for harness set up.

Are you going to use a Viton gasket with that?

Not M3 related, but figured I'd share nontheless...

Took advantage of the mild winter weather lately to give the daily workhorse 328i a long overdue wash. It was baked in dirt and salt to the point where neither license plate was even visible anymore, lol.

Waxed and sealed it, cleaned up the interior and conditioned the trim/dashboard/door panels as well. Should be protected for the next few months now. 163k miles and counting!

Replaced a Throttle Actuator on my friends car. He only did one for now though I recommended doing both. Took us a few hours mainly cause some of the plugs are really hard to get off.

Of course me being a good friend I did it for free.

All I gotta say about the job is, if I can do it, then you definitely can do it.

Finished up my Bavsound Stage 1 kit. I bought it used on ebay and the rear deck tweeters had no mounting bracket, so I had to get creative. It took me a while to get every door, rear deck, and dash speakers in, but it sounds great along with the ghost underseat subs!

Went to drop off old battery at autozone. The guys there realized I had an e92 m3 and came out drooling and asking for a quick rev. They impressed me, they knew everything about the car, the competition package rims and carbon fiber roof, saw my custom exhaust, asked about rod bearings. Knew all about the e46 as well. Talked about horsepower and the like, made some new friends and drove off. These cars bring out the kid in all of us for sure.
