That is the biggest thing holding me back from getting a flash right now. I would even be happy with a map switcher to go to stock like behaviour for oil changes, etc. so if the tech looked at boost, it was still in line (outside of any checksums, etc).

no the seats were damaged in shipping, but he took them apart and dyed them before i could have fedex pick um up. then when they came, he gave them the empty boxes. So i had to beg fedex to reopen the claim (cuz he wants the parts to fix the seats and money back) and he is like almost refusing to send them in cuz he "wants to know what I'm going to do when fedex denies the claim". I keep telling him I don't know, lets see what they say and he starts insulting me like i'm 12 yrs old.

so he has my m3 seats and his seats that he was supposed to trade me

I did but he doesn't get that. He said they're gonna deny it because it was improperly packaged. He doesn't seem to think the fact that its been 2 month or that they are not the same color is going to matter. I think he knows that and doesn't want to send them because the will deny it and say its cuz they have been altered and then he knows he's fucked.

Remember, you must submit a damage claim within 21 days of the shipping date. If there’s a problem, it’s best to address it immediately.
send him this and say you pretty much are late and need to send me my shit or you will take him to small claims and i can help you with that

So last weekend I found my dream condo. I'm pretty much going to put an offer on it, but if/when I get it, it's going to be at the expense of my car. Soooo, I'm going to start parting this bitch out. Anybody interested in parts off my car? Here is pretty much everything worth swapping out.

KW V2's (<3 months, 6K miles)
AFe Intake (~20,000 miles) --> AFV335i
Helix Intercooler (<3 months, 6K miles) - >AFV335i
VK Catless Downpipes (going to pick these up this week) --> AFV335i
CF Kidney Grills (6 months, no fading)
Morr VS8 (Gloss black) with MORR caps and tires (6 months, ~13K miles, minor blemishes)
M-force side skirts - Need to get one repaired, will take whatever I can get

If anyone's interested, I can take some pics or show you in person. Planning on getting back in a BMW next spring
