Just washed and waxed it. I'd compound the old paint then polish everything before ceramic coating it if we'd have four or five days without the threat of rain.

Edit: is it just me or did the app mess up the quote? Looks fine in edit mode. Odd.

Front hub kits. They were a pita, lots of heat and penetrant. Looks like they were due. Thought I'd see a different OEM but pretty sure these are original based on the date...

42cm euro spec warning triangle in my E90 LCI from aliexpress. DIY straps using velcro instead of forking $120 for plastic clips with a thin hinge! Velcro works even better. Looks great, and the triangle is of great quality too. Hopefully won't need to use it.

Got the windows tinted today! Llumar IRX 40% all around. Pretty happy with the results!

Hope im in the right place
After stripping down my N57 following a spun bearing, almost definitely due to oil starvation, I found big flakes of paint from the thin steel plate attached to the timing chains cover in the oil pick up pipe. Has anyone come across this before? seems to be a massive design fault

I picked up a Tune2Air Bovee WMA3000B locally off FB Marketplace, what a life changer to have clear Bluetooth audio and retain Steering wheel controls. FYI, calls still come out from the vehicle phone Bluetooth, and it transitions seamlessly after the call is hung up back to the music. I have a Non-iDrive model, and all the meta-data along with random/repeat and playlist info is displayed on the screen. To note, I have an iPhone, life changer and I would highly recommend to anyone, even at its new retail price!

GoRomeo it's a beauty in silver. That color has really grown on me. Very classy. Basically closest to white without being white haha. Looks simply fantastic in rain.

The Llumar IRX is kinda' spendy at $485. Ceramic or regular dyed are less expensive, but I really wanted to keep the heat out living here in the IE. Coastal folk probably don't need it IMO, and can save a few $$$ there.
