I wish I could do it; but living in an apartment building, car wash is the only way to go for now. I have to give it a once over after each wash anyways, I might as well wash it myself!

Just had fender flares painted to body color and installed the H&R VTF springs and self leveling links. Now this thing needs a wash and wax.

Need recommendations on a new grill. Thinking black with chrome trim since I'm stuck with chrome trims throughout.

It's been 12 years with me, maybe it's time to move...

That's what I did. Didn't want to pay 2K rent for 1bdr in Westchester, and went off to the countryside.

Smart move. My only problem is the long commute to Manhattan.

Was driving to White Plains, but it was a hassle, sometimes. Prefer working from home.

I try and stay humble, but I can't help but think this shit is done on purpose!
It's pretty obvious when we park a mile away and around no one else for a reason, then some smart ass decides to park right beside us when there's a million other spots, much closer to the entrance doors at that...totally done on purpose cuzz they know it increases our heart rate as we're walking back to our cars. Eff 'em lol

Same here. I don't care just because it's a BMW, I don't want door dings in my wifes Mazda either lol. Although to be fair, when we take the Mazda, we tend to park a lot closer to the entrance

I've had mine for a few months now. Still not regretting the switch from a 335i. A few tweaks are coming, but not planning on changing much. I'm currently having a hard time deciding on a set of wheels, but something will catch my eye eventually.

Sometimes, it's not long enough to penetrate all the way in.

Should be able to fix that! Did you buy a Discount Tire warranty? Remember you can buy those without buying tires from them.

Didn't notice any pressure dropping so far. I'm hoping it's not that deep.

Didn't buy a warranty, since I got the wheels/tires from a forum member here. Good to know about buying warranty tho. I read they won't fix it since it's really close to the sidewall for liability. I ordered a plug kit on Amazon. We shall see

That's pluggable... I did mine on my run flats in that exact location and it lasted.

[findo16]

Take it to discount tire if you have one nearby. They fix flats for free.

I've been neglecting her.

A lot of places won't fix that because its outside the last channel and/or the proximity to the sidewall. You can plug it yourself. I love how everyone orders from Amazon when you could just go to the local auto parts store, pick up a kit, and have it plugged before amazon has even shipped.
