What did you get today?

Anyone know why the strut brace for the F32 isn't offered by Mechunik? Isn't the F32 riding on the same chassis as the F30?

Yeah these will go on my fronts to replace some 12mm I have on there now. After lowering on coils, the fronts just are not flush enough. I think 14mm would be perfect based on what I have seen on other people's cars but these will do I hope and not poke.

Crazy how a couple mm makes such a big difference.

I am on 19" OEM H&R sport and i have 15mm up front,and i think it os perfect!

The rear have 12mm, but i think 15mm would be better if not perfect too.

I also got the oil filter cap remover tool from BMS.

You can get a cheapo $5 at Harbor Freight, but man at $15 the BMS is so much more solid and awesome looking... Making the oil change so much more pleasurable and eventful...

Will post pic of it later.

I also got 4 jack point adapters and the stick to mount the wheel...

Very satisfied with my purchase and even more with the fast delivery!
Thanks @BMS

I think i will get the spacer 15mm for my rear at some point,and replace the 12mm.

tboooe · 11-04-2015, 08:31 AM

I dig on the exhaust tips! I only wish they came in 4" though.

I have the wheel hanger and use it all the time!

chums · 11-04-2015, 07:58 PM

sport line all weather mats, replica pedals, and some silver trimming.

You can find that easily on Amazon and eBay.

chums · 11-05-2015, 12:32 AM

Yeah, bought everything on Amazon. FYI, aluminum in the pedals are thin feeling but the fit is great so can't complain much. The little interior trim for the headrest look awesome. The headlight switch trim is a slight bit shinier than the other factory dashboard trim. I thinks that's all I'll do for the interior.

My eBay spoiler came in today too. I ordered it in sapphire black while my car is imperial blue. Hope it looks good.

tboooe · 11-05-2015, 11:09 AM

Can you please provide a link for the headrest trim?

I may buy another pair for the center headrest in the rear, sucks they only come in pairs.

Today was like Christmas.

Real carbon fiber trim kit. I think the M Performance trim is cheesy (no offense) with the fake carbon fiber, especially for the price. This is real carbon fiber and it was cheaper.

ahero4eternity · 11-21-2015, 06:02 PM

Also got there matte black grilles. I like these more than the black M Performance grilles. The 11 blades looks better than 8 blades, IMO.

Dark Factory. They use OEM trim so fitment will be perfect.

Seller sent me the wrong color grilles (ordered glossy and received matte), but he's sending replacements and told me to keep the matte grilles so I installed them this morning.

I think I prefer glossy, but I'll rock the matte for now.

I like these more than the M Perf grilles because there are 11 blades and each one is thinner.
