    I moved one of the M3s out of the garage... and finally installed an APR carbon intake and APR Stage 1 tune on the SQ7. Absolute monster.

    Lowering and some camber should help, but it looks a bit much with 12mm spacer in the back right now IMO. Less and less into the herrafrush look these days.
    Oh yeah! It looks good!

    There's a chance I part with mine... will keep you updated.

    Xpel 50% ceramic. It seemed to be the best compromise between privacy and interior visibility.

    So I had a couple of gremlins hanging around in my 2006 vert:
    1. trunk seemed slightly misaligned, left and right corner not even, sometimes the trunk doesn't latch immediately, and felt loose (not sure how to explain this, as trunk on my previous one had a "heavy" thud when closing.
    2. going over bumps I had a sqeak, I could not put my finger on it, thought some bolt was loose or maybe worst case subframe.

    Well, today I figured out both !!!!
    1. trunk latch was loose !!!!! I tightened both screws and its back to normal, alignment and thuddiness 😂
    2. posted this a while back, one of the trunk supports was missing a rubber cover which I replaced with one from a new bleeder. The metal bolt under the rubber was rubbing against the trunk causing the annoying squeal !!!! I told my kids the sqeal is gone, but why??? this is why !!!!

    Looks good. I want to add a front lip to mine, any comments on fitment or install?

    Is it this one?

    Just got the car back yesterday from a major suspension bushing overhaul. I decided to use Lemforder for almost everything except a couple parts.


    Inner and outer tie rods

    Front control arms and bushings


    Dropped the rear subframe and replaced everything.

    I used SDW for the RTABs

    I changed the control arms to the ECS performance ones. This part 002608ECS01

    I’ve had them in the garage a couple years.

    I went solid subframe bushings. VAC sells a set of raised bushings.

    I changed only the front Diff bushing with OEM.


    I’ll be taking the car to the mountains for some fun this weekend. Excited to feel what the refresh has done.

    Im SMG but i didnt bother because well it was easier and quicker to modify the non CSL harness with my tech. We used BMW wiring diagrams which he has access to in 2 minutes which helped.....

    I just wanted to do this to chase down something else which if it is the case i'll post up.....

    Replaced failed/leaking batteries in the alarm siren. Of course the alarm siren is sonically welded together so out came Mr. Hacksaw. Careful cutting and some epoxy to put it back together. Made a harness to relocate the new battery to the DME area so I can check on them.
