I know you said Calgary but if your ever in Edmonton Auto Obsessed is a insane place to go to, there very specific and do a good job but you do pay for it.

Assuming you're looking for someone to do it for you rather than somewhere to purchase detailing supplies, Jed at Mobile Reflections is excellent!

Do you guys know a good place to get your windows tinted in Vancouver? I don't like giving my car away to shady places so any help will be greatly appreciated.

Alohaaaaa · 05-08-2014, 01:30 AM

Just pulled with another 335 tonight on shaganappi... We talked at a few lights.

Nice car man.

Finally had a chance to take a quick shot in our so called "spring" weather

DuDai · 05-12-2014, 04:49 PM

Just ordered some RB turbo's for my car. First though gotta get new tires on. Hopefully an LSD too. But my wastegates rattle so bad when i start up the car in the morning. Sounds like a raccoon in amongst a bunch of trash cans. So figured i better have a set of turbos ready just in case. Aaron at Vitek Autowerkz been doing all the work on my car. Super shop to deal with so far i've found. They are moving into a new shop apparently right away.

Flames Fan22 · 05-14-2014, 03:38 AM

does anyone know any good body shops in calgary. I got a performance diffuser for my e90 335 and was wondering if you guys know any places that can paint and install it. I know you have to do some cut and trimming with the bumper

I've had a bumber replaced by Cosmo Collision and they were top notch with a high attention to detail. They specialize in european cars.

They are also highly recommended on http://www.eurodrivers.ca/forums/for...Body-amp-Paint
lots of good reviews/possitive feedback

Oh hey budddyyyy....

Cosmo's is pricey as fuck, Screamin Paintworks is much cheaper, and does amazing work (repainted my bumper and door).

Thanks man! Definitely am loving it, I recently just got it tinted 28% all around and threw on an M3 style lip spoiler.

Huge upgrade from that stupid GenCoupe I had prior.

Hey just wondering if any calgary meets were being planned for this summer?

Hi everyone:

I'm a newbie to this site and to BMW. I just purchased a 2014 X35i Sapphire Black X5 M Sport, and love it.

I'm looking to increase my horse power, through I believe it's called "Dinan". The few inquiries I have made, indicates there would be nothing until the end of the year for this model, has anyone heard anything different?.

Also, the "M" Performance Brakes. The stock ones are great, but love the look of the "M" Blue, as well as the disc's. Its sounds pretty goofy to most, to purchase brakes based on the color and size, but my wife and I love the car. I think we are becoming car, better yet BMW enthusiasts.

Also, would like to upgrade the sound system, currently have the Harmon Kardon, but really like the other sound system that has the speakers come up through the dash.

Any thoughts, or advice?
