Removed the visor warning stickers...yay me. Sucks having a list of desired things for the car and not having the time/$$$ to implement the things.

Still damn happy with the car, though!

What? They are stickers?! I tried peeling them off and thought they were printed directly on. They're such an eye sore.

Filled up my second tank of gas, this time with Shell v-power. Last time was chevron 91 with 10% ethanol. Will see if performance or mileage is better.

Lucky for us, NEU02 has made it his mission to rid the world of these eye sores:

Do it! I personally like the feel of the OE paddles a tiny bit more, but the M paddles look way better than the dumbo ears.

Must be a very good daughter. Guess she's the one making nursing home decisions in the future.

Yes she is a great daughter and I am starting to make an investment in her as my boys wouldn't want to send me to a nursing home as it will take away from their inheritance.

I keep telling my mother she's going to the bad home with beatings and ex con staff.

Received my KC Design strut brace. Will be installed during oil service visit first week of July, maybe along with Dinan Stage 1...still debating that move.

You have a 228 right? Do it. Went stage 1 on dad's wagon - big big difference. Stop at stage 1 though on your engine you then start spending stupid money on minimal gains after that.

Installed a drop in K&N filter, and removed the 228i logo from the rear for a cleaner look imo.

Ordered the Stage 1 today from the dealer, with your recommendation! My BMW dealer is also a Dinan dealer. There was concern about anything beyond Stage 1 for durability issues, but that won't affect me. Installation is in July, along with strut brace and upcoming oil service.

Nice! Yeah I only Dinan at the BMW dealer too. None of that he said she said shit with a warranty. Just take it back and let them figure out who pays.


I noticed a HUGE difference on the wagon and that's a bigger car. You should def be happy with the 2.
