What did you do for your M3 today?

[Geckster31]

Today I took out most of the front suspension and refinished or replaced what I could. New end links, new struts, new springs, new tie rods, new lollipops.

While I was at it, I figured I would rebuild the calipers and cerakote all the pieces I could in E-100 blackout. I think everything turned out really nice. Did the caliper, all bolts, rotors, heat shield, knuckle, and even the windshield wiper arms lol.

After a fistfight with the garage door, had to learn myself how to do bodywork.

Replaced mpower22's fuel hose
Replaced compression spring and ball for the rear side of the trans, easy without having to drop anything.
installed my old Eventuri intake with non-black carbon, shouldn't match much with the new Eventuri airbox once its out 😂

Replaced the front brakes. Maybe a bit premature (still had about 25% left) but I had new pads so figured I might as well.

Found that one of the brake pistons was very difficult to retract. Probably means I should start looking into the brake upgrade.

I've been eyeing the Freaky Parts Brembo kit. Trying to decide between the 345mm (ZCP/Comp) and 360mm (E9X) rotor options.

Hope everything went smooth with the install. Glad you got around to it!

Yep, your hose is a bit thicker, it was a little tougher to squeeze on and straighten out, but a little bit of silicone spray and it wiggled on. The older one seems alright, but I wanted to get it done and over with.

Yes, it is. I think I started selling these in 2015. The original version was the thinner wall model like OE (the one with the blue stripe in the photo), then that supplier got bought out and discontinued it around 2019. The only other one I could find in bulk was this thick walled one that's made in Turkey. (I actually cut each section to length before I ship them out). I'm constantly looking out to get this back in place though, thanks for the feedback.
