Guys quick question, I'm about to get a rear add on (ACS Carbon Fiber replica only). Any recommendation where to have it painted (Black Sapphire) and how much do I expect to pay? Thanks in advance.

Get it painted by the guy above, Longtran. He can paint and install it if you want. He paints aero lips reflectors and tons of aftermarket parts for almost all of us socal guys so his pant match is dead on.

Island Snow · 05-02-2008, 02:58 AM

^Thanks Lawrence, I didn't know Long also paint parts even though you didn't buy it from him.

You better contact him soon. With one day left, who knows time he has.

Tomorrow is a BUSY day for Long, with alot of people going to his place.

Island Snow · 05-02-2008, 03:05 AM

^Pare I just saw your new BBS, looks great.

e92phreak · 05-02-2008, 03:06 AM

anyone know this answer? When resetting the TPMS, does the car need to be in motion?

Even though I reset my TPMS yesterday, I just tried it again while the car was parked in my garage, but after 8 or 9 minutes, it was still trying to reset...

EOE90 · 05-02-2008, 03:07 AM

:

Resetting the system
Each time a tire inflation pressure has
been corrected or a wheel or tire has been
changed, reset the system.<
iDrive, for operating principle refer to page 16.
1. Press the button
The start menu is called up.
2. Press the controller to open the menu.
3. Select "Vehicle settings" and press the
controller.
4. Select "TPM" and press the controller.
5. Start the engine, but do not start driving.
6. Select "Reset" and press the controller.
7. Select "Yes" and press the controller.
8. Start to drive.
The tires are shown in gray and "Resetting
TPM..." is displayed.
After driving a few minutes, the set inflation
pressures in the tires are accepted as the target
values to be monitored. The system reset is
completed during your drive, and can be interrupted
at any time. When driving resumes, the
reset is continued automatically. On the Control
Display, the tires are shown in green and "Status:
TPM active" is shown again

I guess so

Don't they want your car at their booth? Doesn't that usually mean that they hook you up?

Man, if they left you hanging, I'd bring the car to Bimmerfest and make a BIG DEAL out of it and make them look like fools.

b335i · 05-02-2008, 03:14 AM

Hello all,

Can you guys talk me into going to bimmerfest? I am on the fence about it. Never gone before, just bought my first bimmer in Dec.

Sounds fun...looks like its going to be fun?
