Nothing. VMR sent me two bent wheels...

Your daily fail of the day. Brought to you by: Dimitri.

Good meeting you. Sorry it didn't work out, but I know you'll love the wheels after the situation is rectified

Restored the three ashtrays - 40 years of ash, gum, rust

removed all dirt from under rear seat and behind side trim panels - then applied rubberized undercoating, let dry and then sprayed over top with Baikal blue

Nice progress!

I finished up getting the bumper on, now waiting for the spoiler to get back from paint

Sucks that the wheels are bent. But it looks nice with the vmr

Forgot to add that one of the studs slipped out while I was leaning on it with two wrenches to tighten or loose the double nuts. My lower lip hit the fender and I got a tiny cut on the outside above my chin and a medium cut inside from my teeth. Stopped by dentist yesterday since I was in area, she looked at it and said it should heal in a week. In the meantime, avoid spicy foods.

So it's not just what did I do to my BMW, but what did my BMW do to me!

Replaced front wheel studs, went from Bimmerworld bargain 75mm (on car for 3 years) to BimmerWorld mid-grade 82mm. Barely noticeable visual difference. It will allow me to run a 12mm or 15mm spacer more easily (currently have 5mm spacer) but now m thinking I should have gotten the 90mm studs. Will post pictures in one of the wheel stud threads.
