Finally did a hand wash. Last wash was somewhere around early September... maybe. lol
Went an extra step and rubbed off all the dried whitish crap from the compound I've used on my car a few times already. I never wiped my trim after detailing since I rarely had the time to do so, but tonight I went to town. The trim looks far better than it did before. Also cleaned all glass, which I also rarely do. All steps that make the difference... too bad a car wash is over an hour and a half of work to do it this way!

You can see what it looked like before and after.

Replaced the new aftermarket M3 fuel pump with a new OEM M3 fuel pump that doesn't have a faulty sender unit. Replaced under warranty. Pleasurable experience dealing with ECS Tuning on the replacement, easy as pie.

Everytime waxing/PCing your car, you should use blue painters tape in all the trim.

And here I thought you've been listening all these years.....

New Clear Corners and Side Markers

Hi Everyone,

I dont post here too often but I installed my new OEM Euro clear corner lights and side markers yesterday and wanted to share a few pics.
My original amber corner lights were full of condensation so i figured it would be a good time to upgrade.
