Can you confirm 100% that the thump is fully gone?? I will absolutely do this to eliminate the thump and lower the car. That ride height looks perfect! Will probably go with R&M as well |

Day two in Oak Park and no thumps on the bumpy alley and surface streets. Will provide another update in a couple of weeks. Taking it to BMW of Elmhurst Tuesday for the alignment. I will share my experience with them to see if they can glean anything from it as they spent a week with my car trying to address the thump. |

today i sprayed peppermint oil/water concoction under my hood because i found seed shells on my engine cover the other day! last thing i wanted was vermin loitering around in my car so hopefully the peppermint works. i read it on the internet, so its got to be true, yeah?
to do this week: install bavsound ghost speakers and my side winglets, weather permitting. and maybe an oil change. im just over 3k miles. ive also been debating getting the aa downpipe... like, its the first thing i think about when i wake up lol. |

I haven't used any local shops yet, I've just been buying stuff online and doing the installs myself. How about you? |

good call on under the engine cover. will check that out asap. i did a moderate misting over the entire bay, concentrating on flat plasticky areas and was a bit more generous with the foam under the hood, around the tires where it meets the ground and all around the garage.
good luck to you and thanks for the tips. Quote:

Install the rear USB-C ports.
Installation was super easy after I spend hours starching my head over how to run the wires. I’ll create a separate post with how to and part number. Until then Before and after photos |

Couple of little things added
The coin cubby like that it really doesnt change how this looks much and the ODB Safe Lock, belt and braces really as im hoping this along with the ghost II it proves too much hassle for the oportunist, although Im aware if they really want it they will get it.

Depends where you live. Some areas of England are basically lawless.
Personally, I’d be pi55ed if my car was stolen but if it was taken, I wouldn’t want it back afterwards. I’d also hate to have an attempted theft as the insurance Co would want to repair it so I don’t see the point in steering locks or Ghost. It’s insured, I’ll get a brand new latest model as a replacement. |
