Let's hope it comes in early. One of my friend's personalized plate came in after 3 weeks. I also ordered a BMS Pbx and new Injen Intake that both come in on thursday.

Uncharacteristically short post for me I think!

So you had everything approved and are just waiting for the plates to be made? Or is it the approval process that takes time?

Yup! We will most definitely have a fall meet before slipping into deep hibernation.

BTW Joe please let me know when you get the eisenmann, as I would love to hear it. Thanks man.

WELL DONE! Hope it rteats you well and that you drive the hell out of it. That engine begs to be revved!

Welcome back Art! Hope you had a relaxing trip. My 1 was awesome but this is more awesome! The new ride will still be different for you though as it is the 6 mt.

Anyway, it would be great if you could make it out to Imola this saturday morning. We are having our "official" summer meet.

Everything was approved just waiting for the plates to be made and sent out to me.

Good to hear. I'll be looking forward to it.

I just heard from IND and they still haven't heard if it is done yet. I ordered it 4 week ago to the day and they said it would be about that long. They didn't stock the E90 black version so they had to have one made in Deutchland... The wait is killing me!

Yep. Had this on my 330. Great, inexpensive mod. Takes a little getting used to though.

Unfortunately, Sat is already booked up. having two younger kids heavily involved with sports makes free time all that more rare. next time (I hope)

Has anybody been watching the "lost episodes" of Top Gear on BBCA? They are showing some of the older shows that were never aired in the US. I'd recommend checking it out, Monday nights at 8.00.

My only problem with them is how much they charge for cable and internet. Pretty much the only thing that's more expensive here than in Europe - and I still can't watch Top Gear in HD

Ive been watching bits and pieces of them when I get time. I need to set my dvr to record them

BSME90 · 08-26-2010, 05:51 PM

Injen air intake and BMS Pbx came in today. Hoping to install both later tonight.

R3DBULL · 08-27-2010, 09:30 AM

Martin, are you going to be at Imola tomorrow? I want to see that Injen intake. I am thinking about that as well.

ajvee · 08-27-2010, 10:11 AM

Guys,

I have my old winter setup for sale. I would like $650 picked up for the set, but please don't be shy to send me any offers as I have no use for these.

You should also take a look at the carbon fiber BMW Perf. intake for the N52... pretty sick.

Btw, saw you the other day on county 42 + buck hill road. Tried to wave, dunno if you saw me.
