Thanks!

The rack is from Thule (Thule EasyFold 932) that produces the BMW OEM racks but its not BMW branded. I'm very pleased with the rack, great product!

Personally I have a hanger-style rack right now, but I want the put on style that you have.

Exploring both Thule and BMW. BMW is good in that I can mount directly onto my factory hitch. Also I'm trying to get the license plate holder (with turn signal and reflector) that goes on the rack (either Thule or BMW) and that's not available here.

A bit strange colors in this image, but anyway...more Norwegian mountains here

Good weekend all,
Bent

I can really recommend you to pay Scandinavia a visit. First a couple of days in Sweden, Stockholm (one of the worlds most beautiful cities), and then up the Norway and the mountains and fjords (spectacular nature).

Yes, these platform version are very easy to use and stable in high speeds. I checked in the US and Canadien sites from Thule but they dont seem to offer any of the platform models. Are they not legal? A bit strange...

Here's a video from Thule on the one I have.

Beautiful picture. Quick question... are your wheels BMW OEM or are they after market. They look great. If they are BMW what style number are they?

stoner · 07-31-2016, 04:23 PM

They are OEM 21".Think its is 599 style

twelve535i · 07-31-2016, 09:00 PM

Head to Head (Alan L's F85 and AW305s F15)

A competition m3 that's almost stock......for now

Decided it was better to get the carbon fiber look without paying for the real deal

It always rains when we meet

Hi Kzang, is that a Terra Dakota Interior plus Hexagonal Aluminum Trim?

Looks really good.

I ordered that combination but can't seem to find any pictures of them combined in a F15. Please post some pics if you can

Doanster · 08-01-2016, 08:36 PM

Freshly tinted this morning with Suntek Carbon 35 (legal limit in OR). I thought it wouldn't be dark enough and show too much contrast compared to the rears, but it's not that bad. Definitely satisfied and at $95... can't beat that!

Looking good Doanster, I bet it would look hot with a front lip
