anyone tried the vynl on the chrome trim? i think i'm gonna try and tackle it this weekend as well. who says you can't mod in the winter

Go to A&L if you want to get the vinyl installed. I had mine done there and they did a perfect job. As a matter of fact, I will be there on Thursday to get something else done.

I don't quite remember the exact amount as I had them worked on couple things for me, but I would say somewhere close to a hundred. Send Anthony@IND or Nate@IND a pm. They are great guys.

Nebster · 12-15-2008, 06:32 AM

thats not bad at all. i may stop over there after xmas. I'm heading down to missouri this weekend to see my folks for xmas. Do they do tint too?

Vudoo4u2 · 12-15-2008, 10:53 AM

they do everything you want there, including ordering parts for you...sometimes they can save you a buck, worst case, they just help you get it easier

great guys @ A&L

Nebster · 12-15-2008, 11:12 AM

> Spotted Space Gray / Sparking Graphite e92 in West Loop (Chicago)

Is that anyone's car on this forum? I've seen it a couple times since I've moved out here. One time, I was driving behind it on Randolph and you chirped your second gear. =p I stay away from going nuts on that street considering all the pot holes. Either way, the car looks clean.

UdubBadger · 12-19-2008, 01:17 AM

everyone be careful tonight and tomorrow... this storm over chicago is ridiculous

Nebster · 12-19-2008, 07:01 AM

yeah i just went outside and with the way my gutters overflowed my stairs turned into a ramp i fell hard core. DON'T GO OUTSIDE IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO

Back in a Subie · 12-19-2008, 09:21 AM

It was great plowing the snow with my front bumper the entire way to work... I am surprised I still have a lip attached to my car. I just kept waiting for some big hardened chunk of ice that fell off someones wheel well to rip it right off.

Nebster · 12-19-2008, 09:26 AM

how much snow did you get up there. we were lucky and only got about 3" of ice

UdubBadger · 12-19-2008, 11:27 AM

wow... we got like 6-7" of packing snow on our driveway up here in glenview. consider yourself lucky with 3"

Nebster · 12-19-2008, 11:42 AM

3" of ICE!

with about 3" of snow. they closed a ton of shit here

my stairway is now an ice ramp

kyleb350 · 12-19-2008, 12:31 PM

Visiting the 'rents up in Milwaukee. 13"! I don't mind driving in the stuff, but I don't want to be plowing either

Back in a Subie · 12-19-2008, 01:42 PM

In Lansing we are at about 12-13 inches atm and its still snowing on and off...

J BONE · 12-19-2008, 05:52 PM

Put the OEM front lip on over the summer and almost cried this am. I thought for sure that thing was going to be hanging off by a thread when I got home. I know it is still there but will have to wait until tomorrow to check for damages. We got around 10" in McHenry county. Roads blew this am. Too much open farm land still. Love the AWD though!

tracfour · 12-19-2008, 07:15 PM

I rather take the snow over the Ice. Pulled the BMW out the garage so I could get the ice on my truck to melt.
