I had a quick question as to whether i should i delete my resonator too. I did a muffler delete it sounds great but not loud enough for me i want a little deeper growl will the resonator delete help out? I have 2008 328xi, i deleted the muffler and got stainless steel tips thats pretty much it. I have a video of how it currently sounds:

I would say yes, deleted mine, no drone and no rasp. On our audi, different story but Bmw was easy and sounds great with my magnaflow if you ask me/the wife who drives it daily.

Got a quote to fix my bumper... RIP

Today, I've only been looking at pictures of mine, been traveling for a while... miss my car.
On the bright side, I just joined this great forum of enthusiasts and I'm snooping around for a nice pair of rims and maybe a new exhaust.

ny325 · 07-08-2016, 01:18 PM

Had a faulty camshaft sensor replaced.

He can do mine when I come up to Disney around Thanksgiving time.

Hackslash · 07-08-2016, 05:31 PM

Well after doing a headlight restore 3 times, I think I finally got it right! First 2 times I went with Meguiar's heavy duty headlight restore kit. And although I love Meguiar's products usually, it just didn't work well for me... first time it was good but I missed some spots. Second time I knew what I was doing better but a day later the entire lenses were cloudy so I obviously messed something up. Third time is a charm though, I went with a fairly cheap product called "Wipe New", and wow it really worked wonders. I've had it on for a week now (I know I didn't do it today but I was too lazy to upload pictures a week ago) and they are still perfectly clear. So if anyone was on the fence about this product, it worked well for me, it might be worth the $15 or whatever it costs in your country to give it a try.

Replaced 20lbs steel non-M front bumper carrier with 11lbs cf / kevlar M3 bumper bar. There's a Euro non-M rear bumper bar in transit that weighs 12lbs less than the US-spec carrier. The car is tracked.

Drove it around the block and realized how much I miss it after driving my Enterprise Malibu for the past week. Don't think I'll be able to drive a rental the whole time while waiting for an airbag replacement.

I have the same phone "mount" and it's better than anything else I've tried.

John 070 · 07-09-2016, 12:41 PM

Gonna back the 335 out and drive, been a loooooong time. 328 is on the street and the driveway is clear....

N54Twin · 07-09-2016, 12:49 PM

Finishing up.....

Had no time in the weekdays.

M5 rods on, exhaust is on everything coming back together.

Working alone on this and on stands and jacks is a pain.

Any impressions yet, compared with xDrive version? The M3 front strut brace was a real improvement in the front, for me. Wondering if the benefits in the rear can be used as well.

i8088 · 07-09-2016, 01:41 PM

I wrapped my wood interior trim with glossy black vinyl. I also went ahead and painted the ring around the start button red because it was peeling.

I have never done vinyl wrap before so its not perfect, but the process took a lot longer than I had anticipated.

Honestly I can't push my car. I have a really bad wastegate rattle, turbos are almost out.

I have a set that might install myself.

Car is down. No more gas leakage.

Next:
VCG
Turbos
M5 rear sway
