Yesterday I added 18'' VMR 801's in Sunken treasure to my car after getting them ceramic coated. Staggered set size 225/40/18 front 245/35/18 rear.

Finished the M Performance Carbon Fiber interior in my M240Xi off with the steering wheel trim. Not to difficult to remove the airbag and a few screws and install the new piece. Now the interior is complete. I think. Haha.

Spent about four hours washing and detailing. (Did an extra good job on the windows.) Added 2 PSI over factory spec to all tires, using my nifty new "official" BMW mechanical pressure gauge.

There's a few places to buy them. Can't remember where I got mine. Was a perfect match for the OEM one. Install was about 5 min. I watched a YouTube video on how to do it. I think there is a seller on this site/forum that has them as well.

Looks fantastic!
I have been considering to get exactly same wheels even the size.
Where did you get them and how much were they?

Installed the OEM Thule rack. Nice and solid. She's all ready for Saturday's drive to the mountains for some snowboarding.

Thule slider ski rack mounted. Screws were a bit shorter than I would have liked, but they're secure. On to the mountains!

Ordered a Audiotec-Fischer / Bimmer-Tech Match Amp from Bavsound and hit up eBay for a URC.3 remote to mount in the arm rest. Pics to come soon along with listening impressions.

Finally exited the break in period! Also added M tire valve caps. Wonder how long before they get stolen...

Got notified from DMV that my California black plate is ready to pick up (4 months' lead time from order to delivery).

Apparently so does everyone else, according to DMV when asked why they're four months backlogged with orders.

We either need more prisoners, or a more modern plate manufacturing system.

Removed the ASD by-pass harness and re-connected the exhaust valve; I'm part exchanging the 235 for a 335. The ASD by-pass harness will be going on eBay (if anyone in the UK is looking for one).

just the BMW m performance front splitter.

upper sections body colour match in alpine White, main lower section painted gloss black and the centre lower lip in alpine White also.

all I have seen previously when searching have been the opposing colours.
