Done that but over time the caps rotate under centrifugal force once again....has to bad some way to hold them in place?

Touché. Maybe Velcro on one of the teeth and then inside the hole on the rim?

Sounds meaner than spit... Is the increase in volume crazy loud, or fun/great loud? (Hard to tell from the video since we don't know how close the cam is to the exhaust, or its placement, or ambient reference sound... But it sounds CRAZY loud. Like cops-pull-me-over-annoy-the-neighbors-loud!

I like it, though - don't get me wrong.)

Did you do that yourself? Degree of difficulty? If a shop, how much?

Looks good. Which front lip did you get? Easy to install? Quality? Happy with it? Thinking of adding one to my AW M235i vert.

Friday- on the way to work ran over a piece of semi-truck tire tread in the road at 70 mph and pulled my M-Performance lip right off. Painful considering the time and money invested in painting and the Xpel PPF installation. Thinking about a Lightweight lip to replace it.

Saturday- got a Dinan High Flow Midpipe installed. Highly recommended if you want a deeper, louder sound from the stock exhaust. Lots more pops and cracks in Sport & Sport+. Much louder cold start.

Sunday- wash, wax and interior detail. Did some driving with the windows down just to hear the new sounds of the exhaust. Love it!

Tires rotate at different rates in turns (inside vs. outside), so they"ll never stay aligned. Better to focus the OCD energy elsewhere!

See above.

On Tuesday I had a new sound system installed by MusicarNW in my brand new 230i.
Amazing!

Now I am deciding what to do next....likely xpel and tint.

crabu2 · 06-02-2017, 10:39 PM

I used the foam cannon to give my car her 1st wash.

SteveInfante · 06-04-2017, 06:15 PM

Got her back from the paint shop. Had the front bumper repainted again. 56k miles of daily driver use takes a toll. Still kickin though. Now with more boost. LOL.

shadowfax · 06-05-2017, 04:51 AM

Shaved my head so I can drive with the windows down and not worry about my hair.
