Order from FCP arrived last week so I finally got around to changing the oil. (Liqui-Moly 5w40 / OE filter) Plan on taking advantage of the FCP return policy.

Left rear window regulator gave out and in attempt to raise it I scratched the tint . And I forgot I ordered a steering wheel cover a few weeks ago. It showed up today. Might try to install that soon.

Started on the steering wheel cover this afternoon after we slowed up at work.
eBay sellers name is mooventsteven, product was listed as a wheel cover wrap.
Much more time consuming than anticipated. Was only able to get the lower left section finished before 5:30.
I drove home with the lower left stitched together and continued installing.
The pattern was off a bit somewhere between the 12 o'clock position and 3 o'clock position. The later photos show this. I started at the 3 o'clock with the top section and by the time I made it to the seam I decided to restart on the 9 o'clock. But, as I closed in on the right side seam it was obvious the pattern was off.
I will be contacting the seller, but don't expect much will be done.
Overall, I'm pleased with the outcome for 50.00 shipped , and it can be removed much faster than it went on.

That looks quite good. Crap, for $50 maybe I should've kept the M3 wheel I just sold.

For $50, that looks very good. I saw a similar cover recently on this youtube video .
$44 for that one. They also had an alignment issue.
Went in this morning to replace both rear window regulators and decided to spray the lower grille and fog surrounds. To spray the grille I released all the tabs and pressed it toward the rear, then as seen in the pics taped off the bumper.

Looks great. It seriously makes such a big difference.
