Car looks very good Arbee, been a keen follower of this thread and it's nice to see its transformation over 93 pages.

CSL wheels is always a classy look for the E90, it is common however and I do remember you saying that was the reason you opted for the 19" X5 wheels was because you were seeing the 18s on a lot of other E90s.

Definitely one of my favourite E90s though, when I'm thinking of a 330d I always have yours in mind. :thumbs:

Thanks for these kind words. I really appreciate it.

The csl's are 19s.

Today she visited Tune Tech for her regular oil change and got a clean health report from Tune Tech :thumbs:

I have had a bit of crap luck in the last few weeks.

1. Some idiot scraped the side and didnt even bother to leave details :cry:

Managed to polish most of the scuff marks out, however it needs to panel beated and painted as the paint is chipped and the metal is wrinkled.

2. Then, i had a run in with a pothole and this happened on the freshly painted rear left wheel :cry:


I should have the wheel sorted this week, The Wheel Shop are good chaps. Was told to bring it and they will sort it.

Also, i have ordered new tyres for the car as the Achilles are utter crap!

However, with all this i am still planning to enter the Show and Shine this weekend. Will give her a good polish on Saturday in time for the show.

Got her back this morning, clean health report from Shaun at Tune Tech.

Filled up the tank and threw in a bottle of NF. Smile back on my face!!!

Now to just fit new tyres and polish her up for Sunday.

Got a quote of 2k to panel beat and paint. Need tyres first. These achilles are dam noisy.

Ah okay sweet! .. What are you going to seal with? Adams?

Please suggest me one from your store...

Also, quick one. My mini is blue with white roof. I think im gonna need the opposite of black hole. Is it white diamond?

I think Poorboys blackhole + a sealant will look magic on that colour. I would go with Powerlock if you on a budget, or WolfGang/Blackfire for the really topshelf stuff.

While white diamond on white looks epic, it might be a waste if you just going to use it on the roof. Blackhole + Sealant on both the blue mini and BMW will give you a totally different finish to the wax.

We can take this offline if you want more details, I don't want to pollute your thread talking product.
