Ordered a new motion sensor bracket to replace the original which had worn out causing the unit to come loose; hoping I can just replace the bottom without needing to open up the headliner and switch out the top.

What did you do for your M3 today?

I hear you man, bought mine in 2012, got married, then built a house, first kid second kid, it all takes timeOriginally posted by tnord View PostIt's a 110k mile car that I bought at 80k, daily drove and repaired small items for 2 years, but it hadn't had any of the big issues addressed. I started on the vanos and cooling system in 2014, which took me almost 2 years to complete (second kid, house addition). A couple years later I got the RB done. Then this spring I finally bit the bullet and took care of the remaining big issues. I still drove it on occasion, but it was always hesitantly because of the risk the vanos tabs would break, or I'd spin a bearing, or every hard shift would tear the RACP a little bit more. The handling was also sketchy AF. In the middle of all that I also added an evolve CF airbox running on MAP, and a supersprint exhaust (I'm a sucker for good BF deals). The car isn't "done" by any means, but it's getting closer to what I envisioned over a decade ago.
It's been a long time coming, so yeah, it's nice to have it back.

I did that a few months ago, glad I bought mine 2 years ago, they are MUCH more expensive now.Originally posted by Petener View PostReplacing my steering wheel coupler.
Its interesting to me that my original coupler was very loose, and yet I didn't really experience some night and day difference in feedback.2004 Silbergrau Metallic 6MT

I also replaced mine about 2 years ago, i did notice a night and day difference. I had lot of on center slop and was able to compare it to my non-m coupe so it was quite noticable.Originally posted by Cubieman View Post

I can take pics of all the body if you want. It's really clean and well kept. Then you can mull it over for a couple months as I take everything off. 😁Originally posted by Bry5on View Post
If only I had a place for it. I’m torn about doing the wide body so the fenders are tempting. But I must resist!Instagram: @logicalconclusion

This weekend I had my old 13+ year old tint removed and had a ceramic tint applied all around. 50% sides and back and 80% or whatever it is they're allowed to do on front. Should help keep interior more comfortable here in central Texas plus the fresh tint looks so much better than the worn one car had since I got it. Glad I didn't go any darker. Also took delivery of coco mats and put them in today
