I feel your pain! Somebody hit mine in the shop parking lot... Now I'm trying to decide if I will replace the bumper w/Mtech since insurance is only paying to fix, not replace. At least I will get a crappy PDR job from before I bought the car fixed in the process.

PaiNFuLSeDaTiVe · 11-18-2011, 03:00 PM

man that's some BS michael... is that the corner of the bumper? looks like they hit it pretty solid... douchebags...

Thanks man! Believe it or not, that was all from Harry's Lap Timer Pro. It shoot the video through the iPhone's camera and then overlays the data if you want it to. It worked really well. Automatically starts/stops lap times AND video at every lap.

Yeah corner of the bumper...getting mtech...was going to get it anyways but still!! Karma's a biatch. Theirs will be coming!

Anyone in the DFW area have a real (wall mounted or floor mounted) spring compressor I could use? or know of a shop open on Sunday that would have one I could use? I spent all saturday with the cheapo rental spring compressor from auto zone trying to get the damn springs in my van compressed enough to install new struts, but no dice. Now the beast is in the garage and our cars are stuck outside!

help me E90post, you're my only hope!

LOL I don't know if I could imagine him in an alpha. Hrm, but he is dating my cousin soooo she would be more safe.

Dudes, it is thanksgiving week, and I will be off all week and was off all last week. Then new job next week

Carlos, what products you using lately?

Chuck · 11-28-2011, 10:02 PM

Waiting sucks. Rear bumper and diffuser coming, then off to body shop next week. It's like waiting in line to be in limbo.

bpsu07 · 11-29-2011, 12:17 AM

Lemme have that rear bumper

BlackBB6 · 11-29-2011, 02:40 PM

I'm experiencing the infamous rear passenger squeak when accelerating at low speeds. My car has 47k miles so I am considering taking it into Classic to see if they will replace the pads and sensor.

Has anyone had this done under warranty at Classic? Does anyone know an SA who works there?
