Had a bit of time today and gave her a polish with Menzerna 106FF, followed by a layer of Power Lock. One of my favorite combos...

Got that wet paint drippin

TallGuyX5 · 10-14-2018, 04:43 PM

Finally got my Eibach spring installed by the guys at SoulSpeed. Thanks P1et for the recommendation, those guys are awesome! I can definitely tell the difference with the new springs, not only less gap but also improved the ride. It's more controlled over rough roads and less body roll when cornering. Going to let them settle in for about 300 miles then have the guys at SoulSpeed do the alignment and install 15mm spacers on all four wheels.

Here are the before and after pics:

Looks great!

It’ll settle some more and be even lower too.
Congrats!

That is correct. I had the tips and muffler powder coated black and installed the end of last week along with an ER Catted Down Pipe and AC Schnitzer Lowering Kit and MPBK with F85 Rotors, CarboTech Pads, and ECS Lines.

NGK Spark Plugs and JB4 installed today.

Interior wise I got in my order of Carbon Fiber Center Console, Shifter Cover, and Steering Wheel Trim along with the leather Knee Pads that come on the X5M Center Console. Going to try installing them tomorrow.

I'll post pics and a sound clip once I get everything installed and get it all cleaned up!

Just a few more mods to go on my list and I'll be finally done.

Summer's over - pulled the boat out this past Thanksgiving long weekend.

I was going to make a comment when I read his post but refrained.
Easier said than done and good luck!

JWK170 · 10-16-2018, 07:40 AM

RG and Violator....I know... I know... There will always be something new out that catches my attention. Last two months I have gone on a pretty wild spending spree. Trying to spend all my money now and doing it without getting yelled at since I am getting married early 2019. So yes the mods will continue heavily until then. Then I will have to start having packages ship to my work address.

Here is another mod that I installed last night - knee pads, CF center console trim, and CF shifter cover. Was much easier/faster than anticipated. Quite happy with the quality of CF center console trim from Ben. He said it would match OEM and that held true when I compared it to my friend's OEM piece.
