I want a bmw perf exhaust like Marc has! I was at the dealer friday and my buddy who is a mechanic there started up on in the garage. Holy shit!
And, to stay on topic, i just did a golf t mod to my 135. Haven't driven it yet, but expect it to be louder and slightly gurgle below 3k rpms now.
Holy crap indeed. If it were any louder it wouldn't be my style, but as it is it's great. The crackling and popping are amazing.Quote:

Removed the Dynavin & boxed it back up. Reinstalling the OE Business CD radio & my DIY aux input. Will be adding a Mediabridge sometime in the near future . . . :roundel
Washed her yesterday, filthy again today. Ugh :(

Is the 3m material used to wrap trim or exteriors of cars. CF leather trim wrap is usually di-nocQuote:

Not enough to justify the cost; it just wasn't as polished a product as I felt it should be (e.g. finicky touch recognition, poor iPod interface UI, kludgy Android "integration", buggy Android software, etc.).Quote:

I agree, though the update helped a good chunk it's still not totally refined. I noticed a lot better sound quality out of the stock HK system though.Quote:

Washed the ZHP today and to my dismay forgot and remembered that my ONR detail spray doesn't work in these cold temperatures... so my car is going to have to stay water-spotted until the spring. This is crap...
Anyone have a way I could wipe off the dried water-spots off my car fresh out the self-car wash "drying" process without having to use detail spray?
Also swapped out my mix & match black/silver cube and made it all silver again, with the exception of the broken dash trim. That one's still black. :shifty
Little group of hoodlums in a underground parking lot. One of them skated down the stairs and his board tapped my driver's side skirt.
I gave him one good look, he looked back.
They all bounced.
:facepalm
Awesome day of mini-mods that continued progress making Ness more what I want it to be, thanks to William (wsmeyer) for the work and Ryan (whitexi) for selling me his paddle shifter setup. Details in my project thread below, but in summary:
1) Installed SMG paddle shift mod (for STEP)
2) moved Parrot Bluetooth mic to OEM location
3) individual windows auto-up/auto-down (vert only) mod
4) vert top auto close via fob.

Nothing to my ZHP, but I did help another ZHP owner install Orion Predator Angel Eyes on his IR sedan. He was very happy with the result.

Too many posts, BP.

Thanks JP. I'll probably change out my paddle shifters to something that complements my interior better.Quote:

Here's a pic of it in the X5. I did this last spring to cover all the wood trim. It's a raised vinyl sheet that looks like CF. If you get sick of it or you need to get it back to stock, you just peel it off.
I did the dash in the 135. I'll try to get you a pic of it tomorrow along with the back of the car with the CF spoiler and CF diffuser

EDIT: I guess I'll have a reman OE water pump available soon, maybe like 5000 miles on it
Thanks Marc! I like "sweet flappy paddles". It's kinda like, "great googly moogly!"Quote:

Thanks Charlie. I knew you'd like it! :)
Just bought a DISA refresh kit and expansion tank cap from G.A.S.
I needed a new cap and the email came at the right time. I thought about doing the red cap, but since my engine bay is all black with no bling I thought I'd keep it simple.

wash the car since thanksgiving due to the rain finally breaking for a bit. It's staying in the garage and I'm driving my brother's fit for the weekend :)
this is where I'm stopping tonight

fan and shroud off, upper and lower hoses off, but I can't get the damn block drain plug...
http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c2...7F701F562A.jpg
I'll deal with the rest of it tomorrow when I get home
Here's the dash piece done in the 135... I never got around to doing the console. Sorry the dash is a little dusty. The car is filthy right now. I'll get some pics of the spoiler and diffuser after Kpro gets it washed.Quote:
