Replaced my LCABs. An easy job but man what a PITA to remove the old bushings from the control arms. I ended up using a combination of a 3 jaw puller, a pitman arm puller, a rubber mallet, and good old fashioned brute strength.

i was actually going to wash mine today, moved the wifes car, noticed oil spots in drive, crawled under...oil pan leaking from around gasket.
I'd rather turn a wrench that wash a car anyhow ;-) new oil pan gasket..no more leaks. though it was a very tight fit to get off without pulling extra items, just a few little support brackets. was good, got to teach my son something else he'll probably do someday on his on.
Retrofitted my halogens with H1 projector kit from TheRetrofitSource.com, now I can see again at night, lol.....
And this afternoon, going to a BMW meet at Liberty State Park here in Jersey City, NJ....
Last night I washed, clayed and did a layer of polish. Gave up and went to bed after a while. Need to clay the rockers again cause they're not as clean as I want and another layer of polish for the whole car when I get home later. Will finish off with a few layers of carnuba with a final coat or 2 of ice

I'm just curious if you drive that thing at all? my front bumper is riddled with little pockets from rocks, no matter what i do it doesnt ever seem to shine up nice like the metal parts for the car. gotta say...yours looks fresh off the assembly line.
I should probably clay mine someday. have never done that. Of course i don't have the time i used to so baby gets a quarterly bath. not to mention with my drive, 2 days later my rims turn grey again from the dust.
If you see it up close you can see all the little imperfections and some chin scrapes. I just try to stay away from other drivers/trucks so I don't get too much crap hitting me
Also, about your wheels... You should think of something like this. Makes it easier to keep your wheels clean/just wipe off the dust
