Drove it to work today, and all was well, handles like a dream, until I got stuck for 25 min. on the bridge, without moving....I decided to shut her off and leave her completely off. Even though she was on the battery tender, I didn't want to have something happen and be unable to start when traffic started again.....very creepy, 25 min., and almost to the mid span, stuck.

It's been three long years since I first decided to change some cosmetic items on my car. It's finally done! I picked her up 2 days ago and couldn't be happier, except for the part where I didn't have my 19's on since Ole' Man Winter is soon to arrive, bah whatever.

Car looks nice. However, the rear spoiler doesn't look good to me.

My E90 was bombarded with leaves. Had to go out and remove them.

I don't know why, but the pictures always seem to exaggerate it's length. Looks a lot better up close and personal.

NBA, That is a great looking color on those wheels. I have the same wheels in OEM silver and want to darken them ever so slightly. That color looks like what I want. If you do not mind sharing, what did the powder coating cost for the four wheels?

Well, I knocked out a whole bunch of things at once: new tires, mount and balance, and rim straightening. The whole package cost me $850 without tires, but was approx. $125/wheel for media blasting and painting.

Had the front end sand blasted with gravel, couple new dents in the hood from flying debris, and a new chip in the windshield. Because - race car.

Noticed a cool benefit with my latest mod. Recently installed the H&R 27mm front sway bar, HD end-links, and all front M3 control arms AND after definitely liking the ride better (this plus FSD) I also find it to sit a bit lower in the front. Worked out great as I found it a bit to too high in the front and was dwelling on H&R springs in lieu of the stock sport ones. Anyone else noticed same thing?

P.s height definitely noticeable lower based on fender-gap, with unchanged wheels and tires.

Went to install my TintSaver and found out that my '07 E92 has an OEM felt liner on the weather stripping... Do I don't know why my windows have the vertical scratches

Anyone want to buy a roll of TintSaver felt liner? PM me if you do!
