Id tend to agree with that comment.. unless you have the money, time, and energy to burn, of course

Hi chaps and chappettes.. I was wondering how available, and cheap/expensive, a set of front and rear chrome window surrounds would set you back, and how easy they are to install? I currently have the faded brown front and rear surrounds, and they just dont look right, compared to the chrome on the side windows... Any information would be helpful... Thanks

Nope dude, no idea what the kit is, id appreciate knowing tho, if anyone else knows?

Right on, lets talk What can you do, and how much will it cost me

Thats why "Personal Opinion Is A Wonderful Thing" Tuck, no tuck, its all good.

Nice, what can you do to fix it?I supply parts, you convert for 2 dozen of your favorite? hehe :x Hi Tim, btw

Hiya Tane.. thanks for the message.. Who is Tim, whats his nickname? Thanks for sticking your hand up as a fellow "Wellingtonian".. will have to come say hello to you sometime..

Carl and Tane? Im really new here, who are these chaps I hear you can get a manual kit for around $400, including box, pedals, stick and clutch.. and around $1000 to get it converted? Id love it to be manual, but not if its going to cost me $1500 hehe /wink

Andrew, Gus PM'd me with the same kinda response - Consider them sold - ... I think ill only be needing one set, so you guys can duke it out.. Either of you PM me an account number, and ill give you my address and a deposit on the 21st. Actually, now that i think of it, I recall already giving Gus my address, following his PM.

Petone Springs still available? How low? Cheers..

Got Phat? hell yeah

Spot on, thats the one... Yep, auto, done 280km, but you couldnt ever tell that from driving it.. still very smooth, and power is all there... that i am aware of anyways.. Thanks for the positive comments

yeah, thats the largest of the dents... there are 1-2 other small 50 cent piece dents around the car too, also a scratch/dent on right rear guard flare. hence my reasoning for fixing the body, and respray

Very nice Mine also has the mystery grill above the ash tray... Hmm, M style part perhaps, maybe i have an M too? How does one tell? I plan to go gloss black with my paint also, after i remove the little dents and scratches

Wheels are 15s... with 205/55s on them Looks fat/phat from the back.. rear pic didnt come out right tho.. will reshoot another time

After I bought it.. Another: And.. Right rear...

Before I bought it...

Hi folks Just recently purchased this wee girl: http://vent.orcon.net.nz/BMW/postsale/ [Edit] I have resized the images, as they were quite large, and posted them below..

Sweet, thanks for the advice Yeah, im planning on installing my amp, with equaliser on it, set for 70hz and below.. use it for the subs, and have speakers running from other amp.. will also run some RCAs with built in remote wire. So, Im attaching remote wire from back of headunit, to remote wire on RCA lead, feed to amp in back of car, and attach remote wire from RCA lead to the amp.. Is it possible to daisychain the remote wire from one amp to another?

Ah, you think my RCAs havnt got a built in remote wire? That would make sense.. ill have a closer look at that.. im sure theres a remote wire coming off the amp and going somewhere... will look into it. And yep, ive got RCAs with remote wire, but since amp was already installed when i bought the car, i didnt need to wire my RCAs thru.. Thanks sic

btw, do the mats fit both auto and manuals? or are they "cut" to fit a manual/auto?

Hi all I have a small problem since installing my subs. I have a panasonic mp3 headunit, feeding a 2000w lightning audio amp, which is feeding my fronts and rears. I recently installed my 2 10" subs, and wired them in sequence to the "sub" positive and negative ports on amp. Now, when i turn the stereo on, or off, i get a slight pop sound thru the subs. Ive done a bit of research on this, and im advised to find another "remote" wire, and attach my remote to that. Supposedly the remote wire the amp is attached to, or the headunit for that matter, isnt a good enough connection, and need to find another.. Any ideas on how to do this? Or any other things I can do to solve the problem? Sub wiring is as follows + on amp to - on sub1. + on sub1 to - on sub2. + on sub2 to - on amp. Have i wired correctly? Thanks for any help you can offer

Ill take one of the sets for $40... Payment will be made on 21st January.. Possible to courier them down to Wellington? Either of you two... ?

Just a gut feeling... wasnt a very comfortable deal - details of which i will not go into.. I wasnt put off solely by the VIR...

Will do, I need to get them onto my web server, so ill get that done tonight, and link you... Id love to hear your thoughts and opinions on it.. Also would love to ask you about paint/body work, its got a couple of small dents/scratches.. i wanna get them fixed, and complete respray to gloss black.. just need to get a few quotes.. what do you estimate id be looking at for full respray? 1-2k? its metalic silver/blue atm... check your PM's tomorrow for the url man
