What did you do for your ZHP/BMW today?

Son of a bitch!! My little bullseye chip (about 3mm diameter) now has a crack about 1 1/2" long through it. I didn't take a before pic but this one shows the after. Not sure how this happened but I will be contacting Permatex ASAP. And I followed the instructions absolutely to the letter... I'm so pissed...

Oh wtf!?! That sucks. Let us know what happens next. I was curious to see what that stuff did, but I definitely wasn't expecting the windshield to crack.

OEM hood is back on!

Looks really good with the wheels.

Got caught up on a lot of things in the past week:

- Black/tri-color wheel wrap from Mike @ Coby Wheel (LOVE it)
- Oil change with Mobil 1 0W-40 (switching from BMW Castrol 5W-30)
- Replaced damaged shift lever bearing nylon cup thingy (Did it from inside the car...getting the lock back on the selector rod was a b*tch!)
- New Philips 85122+ 4300k HID bulbs from the Retrofit Source (Driver's side OEM finally died at 90,500 miles/8 years...figured I would replace both)
- Ordered DISA valve repair kit from German Auto Solutions (very excited for this to arrive)

How much was the Philips bulbs? Are they have better price than ECS?

I've got an extra set for sale, listed in the classifieds. Accidentally ordered two sets. BNIB.

John.....I did see that. I thought it was already taken that's why I did not pursue....

Retrofit Source is selling them for $95/pair here http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...nvrvmi2ukfm87e

I looked at ECS as I try to order as much as possible from them because they ship so fast, but they only have the 85122CM (color-matched) and they go for $129 EACH! Not sure why they are so much through ECS. I tried to call customer support to ask if they had the non color-match but after a few minutes on hold I just went ahead and ordered them from the other guys.

Explain the 'Color Match'. I thought they only come in simple brightness according to Kelvins. And OEM is 4300K. I tried to call Umnitza also to talk to a tech. I was placed on hold and so I gave up.
