New OEM black grills, New AW high kick spoiler, new R1 Concepts brakes on order, black shadowline trim, and M performance exhaust. Just need to wait until spring to get the gentleman's express out of storage. Can't wait!

Well, one light started going purple... Just literally when I was going to the grocery store (I knew that parking in front of the dry cleaning store literally opened the metaphor of "being taken to the cleaners" chuckle chuckle snort snort)...

So I ordered a new pair of lights before the right light completely wears out (especially since I moved again and the new area does have quite an active patrol... F**k getting a fix-it ticket) and installed them. 2 hours later I still can't feel my fingertips trying to get that damned retaining clip out.

Got everything in my sig installed last night and adjusted my Cobb AP3 to Stage 2 Aggressive.

MaperPerformance 3" Chargepipe, Megan Downpipes, VSRF 5" Stepped Intercooler, GFB Diverter.

Car feels a little beastly, sounds great and you can really hear the turbo and often the little swoosh/woosh from the BOV as the Diverter is doing its' thing.

Re-branded my interior trim with silver carbon fiber fabric/cloth. Came out pretty good, IMO. Nice to change up the look from the darker matte black I've been running for thr last year.

The cloth has a nice texture and feel to it... Different than the vinyl I used before.

I have a bunch left if anyone needs some. It's not easy to find right now for some reason PYSpeed used to sell it but they no longer carry it. The black is virtually non existent but the seller I got the silver stuff from threw in a bunch of their remaining black as well...just not enough that I wanted to try to do the entire car with being first time using this material.

Cheers.

Fitted the Focul KRS100 with a spot of Dynamat to the door cards and outer door-skin. Full set of new pop-clips on the door cards for added newness to the refit.

I also realised the foam matting between the door card and the the door itself creates a snug enclosure for the midrange speaker!? Surely a speaker likes a bit of breathing space behind it? So I cut out the area directly behind the midrange so it's singing into the door cavity. It's well dynamated so it should give the vocals a bit of depth. Too late to try it out though, I'm tired Zzzzzzzz

Invested some time on my son's 2009 BMW 328i.

Fixed the rear left window regulator (51357140589), installed the M performance exhaust system at the muffler shop (18102208793), Black kidney grills (517121469-11, 12), M door sills (51477907-151, 152, 159, 160), M foot rest (51477906850), M steering wheel trim (32307845527), BMW oem carbon fiber spoiler (51712147114), BavSound stage 1 speaker upgrade, BavSound ghost subwoofers, and Bimmertech BT_PP82DSP amp upgrade. The DIY stuff took about 6 hours, but it felt good to get it done.

Just replaced with straight pipes. It's a pretty common mod.

I hope you made him help!

I know I'm willing to do a bunch of car stuff because I helped out my dad when I was young. Along with all of the other household repair and construction things. Makes a huge difference.

Just replaced my oem fog light bulbs on my E93 with Mtec 4350k h11 super white. Plug and play, no errors. Now they match the oem xenons instead of the white yellowish colour. Just need to upgrade the angels with mtec h8 v12. Fitting was fairly easy, didnt remove wheels or liner, just undid a few bolts and squeezed my paws in. Probably took about half an hour, but could do it in 20 mins easy now that i know what to do. A well worthy easy cheap upgrade. £13

I'm about to do the same thing but rather than going whiter with the fogs I'm going as yellow as possible.
