Planned upcoming Maintenance and/or Upgrades
My M3 is scheduled to go into the shop sometime during the March 2025 time-frame to officially begin "my" 2025 car season with the following work:
- Turner rear subframe reinforcement plates
- Remove rear subframe and powder coat
- Replacing all the rear subframe bushings
- Replace rear diff bushing
- Replace RTabs and adding limiters
- Replace FCabs
- Replace Front Control Arms
- Replace transmission mounts
- Install new Bilstein PSS-10 coilovers with Ground Control camber kit.
- Install titanium Gruppe M exhaust
- Install Turner rear adjustable lower control arms
- Install new Hankook Ventus V12 EVO3 tires
Things I would like to add to the work being done:
- Possibly replace wheel studs for brand new ones
- Replace all lug nuts
- Annual Engine Oil change
- check all stainless steel brake lines and replace if necessary
When I get my car back it will feel like a brand new car with solid suspension.
My M3 will be getting tinted with 20% black ceramic UV tint on the side and rear windows tomorrow.
The carbon roof I recently installed will be getting the clear EXPel wrap to protect the carbon fiber once I locate a reputable shop that can add this Clear XPel film to the carbon surface. I am looking forward to getting this completed as I still have a few more things planned for this amazing car
There will obviously be more to do with this car and yes, I'm having a lot of fun getting this car set up![]()

Got my M3 tinted with proper lifetime tint film. So all three of my cars are now “Florida tinted”
My M3 looks so much better this way.
