I have heard nothing but good things about ABC Muffler. I think its on 50st.

Hi All,

Lots of traffic on Red Flag Deals and a huge group buy they did in Toronto area for a Dash Cam.

Any interest here?

I am going to pull the trigger on a Blackvue 400g-HD Dash Cam.

Just wondering if anyone else would be interested? I've contacted a couple of sellers in Korea to see whaat price they might be able to knock off.

Right now, straight up on ebay, its like 270 bucks.

on RFD, they bought 100 cams, so they got a price of 200 bucks I think.

BMW 420i · 03-30-2012, 05:30 PM

Hey Mark. I got them from Shamez at Treadline for $680 including tax and install, but I didn't get tpm's so I get the flat tire error. They also have M3 reps for the same price. They are located behind crappy tire marlborough.

No, just a cheapo r.o with nowhere near the rpm's of the p.c, but still better than a handjob

How do you find the quality to be? I would hate to spend all that time and money on replicas that will crack on Calgary roads

Who cares? I can get 4 sets of wheels for the price of one oem set. Even if you crack 1 every year you're still way ahead and when you eventually sell your car you won't lose as much money or have to try and sell your oems separately.

Phantom 335i · 04-02-2012, 10:44 AM

well put the summers on on friday. Think I heard my rear rub this morning going over a bump. going to have to listen a bit better on my way home
will get some better pics soon

nizzle · 04-02-2012, 11:47 AM

Hey all, just got my summer tires with matte black rims, but am thinking my chrome window trim would not look good with the rest of the car (will be basically all black). Was interested in wrapping the window trim with vinyl (shadowtrim) and was wondering if anyone in the city of Calgary does this kind of work? Not sure if the dealership would even do this, but I would imagine it would be very expensive.

Also I got a bunch of new lighting upgrades (headlights, fogs, interior, etc) and was seeing if anyone does this kind of work as well, again rather than taking it to the dealership.

If anyone could help me out with this, it would be greatly appreciated... thanks!

Phantom 335i · 04-03-2012, 08:38 AM

here is a little better pic with the wheels on

That's an awesome price. Was it for the 18 in or 19 in and is it a staggered set up? 8 in front and 8.5 in back?

335i_boss · 04-04-2012, 03:00 PM
