Nice man!!
so is the next exhaust setup done yet ? :tiptoe:

 

[herco]

The other half's plan's did not involve an exhaust shop on Saturday, so I will only have time again the coming weekend. Gives me awhile to make up my mind. :rollsmile:

Think im going for the twin tip, like most other have done.

Congrats, she nice and clean....
Love the xenons with the Motorsport

Ive had the car for over a month now, and I am still as impressed as I was day 1! This car is spectacular.

It took me awhile to get used to the stiffer suspension and lower car.

Its been hectic at work so I have not made it to any one of the modifications I have planned, although I set aside some time tomorrow to spray the grills black.

All I can say, Diesel is a winner for a daily driver. I am getting around 7.1l/100km.

Have a nice weekend all!

Congrats

First 'long' distance trip done and dusted.

Got around 5.9l/100km at 140km/h - 180km/h constantly on 300km distance. raise:

Car felt wonderful on the open road... Still 100% happy with my purchase.

On the mods side:

I finally took of the grills to be painted before I went away for the long weekend. But I applied a clear coat over some plastidip which was a very bad idea... So I had to remove all the plastidip leaving the grills looking washed out. I had to drive around with the grills looking all messed up for awhile now.

I am planning on painting them tonight so should be looking 100s by tomorrow!

 

[Teezy_F30]

shouldve gotten the plastidip clear coat ( glossifier ) .. :hammerhead:

 

[herco]

I know this now. Wasnt thinking at all when I grabbed a normal clear. It dissolved the plastidip and left bubbles everywhere. :skit:

Got around 5.9l/100km at 140km/h

Whats 5.9l/100km? Sounds like a distant memory. I do 10.5l/100km at that speed :crazylaugh:

These diesels are really awesome at sipping fuel. I used to do 5.4, but mine was a lci in manual.

 

[herco]

They get awesome mileage! And so smooth on the open road. :tiptoe:

A plan to sort out my steering wheel is also under construction!

BMW should do a recall on all soft touch steering wheels...

Congrats and enjoy.

Q: Why Scarlet? when I started reaing I was assuming the car was red.... :tiptoe:

 

[herco]

For some or other reason, it feels to me like it suits the car well... :coolShake:
