    Steering wheel looks good! Let me know how the alcantara stands up to bring daily driven. Would be keen to see a write-up. May bring a BMW performance wheel back with me...
  3. RIP. What is the world coming to?

    BMW Airbag Recall

    Does this include early build E90s ? We have just bought one and it's at McMillan's at the moment.
  5. I've had that feeling as well, easy enough to change if I'm so inclined.
  6. All shipped and on its way to my hotel including BMW "Betalink" bonding system. Anyone think it's worthwhile to clear wrap the spoiler to protect it?
  7. I can live with that. I'll still be here - just. I don't know how long the labour will take, I imagine a couple of days' work. Thanks - I 'em!
  8. The warranty for the rebuild will be BMW afaik Parts are still 10-14 days out! Rebuild hasn't started yet.. ugh. Have just ordered a Genuine BMW Performance Spoiler something I've wanted since I got the car. Just need to get the LCI Tails as well now. Maybe an Akra or M Performance exhaust, Evolve remap, Got the wheels to go on too
  9. You really do manage to get your builds on EVERY board don't you! Nonetheless it is impressive and I look forward to seeing the finished product.
  10. I am also a great fan of the E90s. Thanks - will update my 'Project' thread when I get back to NZ.
  11. I'd get it fixed. Market was pretty quiet when I was selling, perhaps it's picked up though.
  12. Sold mine mid last year. 01, Msport, ex-Japan, 96K, $10K.
  13. Yep. The lust for more power will be satisfied (if needed) down the line with an M-Performance, or Akrapovic Evolution + Evolve remap.
  14. It's a bit've a bastard but what can you do other than suck it up? I'm currently in New York and the engine is being rebuilt while I'm here so there should be a car to go home to, with warranty! It is true, you don't know what you've got 'ti it's gone. I was beginning to get the AMG or RS4 itch but my appreciation of the M3 has grown massively since not having it and driving other "less performance inclined" cars. I've decided not to switch to "competitor" cars like the RS4/AMG and have more of a clear upgrade when I change cars. I'm thinking an R8 V8 will be the next car...
  15. Currently in New York. Our roads are a God-send by comparison.
  16. Good attempt however I almost feel like your painting approach as in the 540i would yield better results?
  17. Menacing line-up! Looking forward to write-up.
