I personally don't think you need the cap. The OEM PCV hose though is a good idea.

Thanks. I will order everything once we have a solid date.

i can always bring my jack if that's necessary.

I have a low profile rolling floor jack should it be needed.

One of these:

that would be like the first bill & ted movie, "excellent"

what if we all chipped in and bought a bunch of pizza or something. and obviously pay TiC's lunches

SP3333D · 03-07-2014, 09:57 PM

we could do that. I am told that there are a couple of good pizza places in the area. I have yet to sample them tho.

Maybe we can also start contacting the others in the interested list to get a solid committed list down, and hopefully 8+ jobs.

And someone had suggested doing other work at the same time, fender rolling, coding, etc. There is room in the one building to comfortably fit 25-30 vehicles with tons of space left to work, so we could also make it a one stop shop for all sorts of different work that people want to get done at the beginning of the season!

doubleu8 · 03-09-2014, 10:07 PM

Looking forward to meeting some folks once this weather begins to turn for the better.
I'd like to have some coding done.
Count me in.

dsjr2006 · 03-10-2014, 06:37 PM

I'm still in!

fastaction · 03-10-2014, 09:34 PM

I paid a deposit for this service to be performed by TIC at their shop and I'm about to schedule it soon but would much rather drive to Michigan since its much closer. I will contact Kent and will commit upon approval.

First post on a BMW forum... just bought a 09 135i. Interested in this walnut blasting. Email me at nguyen.jimmy.m@gmail.com with any update.

Thank you.

I am 90% on doing this. It completely depends on the date. It would either need to be on a Sunday or Saturday evening. Once we get a concrete date I can confirm yes or no

J-Spec Dan · 03-11-2014, 06:58 AM

wow, lots of feedback!

I can be flexible, but I will admit that Sunday's are more preferable for me as well.

co_pa · 03-11-2014, 10:20 AM

in.

email sent.

thanks brandon and steve for making this happen.

e90Mark · 03-11-2014, 10:26 AM

Also sent confirmation and email to Brandon.

Looks like we still need 1 more to get 8?

Agent11br · 03-11-2014, 03:33 PM

Thanks to everyone that has replied here and to my PM's. When I get some free time I will go through everything to update the list here.

We should be fairly close if not right at 8

fastaction · 03-11-2014, 04:01 PM

confirmed with Kent, deposit paid and committed thx

Billup · 03-12-2014, 12:48 PM

Unfortunately I won't be able to make it in April. I will be down in Mexico for work for three weeks, then to SC for another three weeks.

pinder91 · 03-13-2014, 01:18 PM

B, as I mentioned at lunch today, I may not have my new wheels in until late April which means the car would still be in storage. Most likely a no-go for me.

That doesn't mean I can't come chill though.
