What'd you do to your BMW today?

Recommended Posts

New Boot lid tail lights, removed old ones with leaky seals. Started looking for new material / seat base for E46 cloth sport seats to replace ripped driver seat base.

About to take wheels off for full clean and wax.

Lowered my non-BMW down by adjusting the height control rods. Back actually sits a touch lower than that, except I reversed in the park which tends to lift the rear etc.

I work there too. I think I saw your 530i (like your sig?) - Was thinking that is a very tidy 5er - wonder if he is on the forum?

Oh cool. Yeah I work at Xero, which is in the same building as the Paddington, and also on the opposite side of the building (Watt st). Where abouts do you work? Should come say hi :)

Bit off topic, so on topic:

Added a missing screw on my air intake box, not sure why i wasn't there. Obvious +5hp.
