Well, since the callipers had to go back to the shop for another repaint, I swapped the rotors back and test fitted the wheels at least. Perfect fit in the back with 10" ET45 and 8,5" ET40 in the front with 10mm spacer.
And also got it confirmed that I definitely need to drop her... People have been talking nicely about KW street comforts. Thinking about getting those! |

Developed an annoying buzzing rattle coming from the rear shelf that was pretty much constant if the road had any kind of texture to it. Spent yesterday afternoon tapping around back there and eventually narrowed it down to the seat anchor covers and that latch in the trunk that holds up the cover. Dorked around with them a bit, and this morning it was nice and quiet.
Not much, but I do feel accomplisted!

I meant to measure my ride height yesterday and we could compare them. I'm sure the info is out there though. I think it's around an inch.

Got my key from Gates innovation!
Absolutely LOVE it! The case I got, pictured, I didn't really like so I ordered a different one. Which defeats the purpose of the key since I can't see it as much, but it's peace of mind for safe keeping in case of drops Regardless, it works perfectly as expected. All buttons work and I still retain my full windows up/down feature!!

I think I'm going with coils anyway. Probably want it lower than that and I don't wanna hassle with changing springs and not be happy with the result. |

Installed the sequential mirror blinkers. I like the fact they are smoked and match the black base of the mirror. Will also be adding carbon fiber style mirror covers so it will all look good together.

Used the mirror controls to move mirror all the way up, then slowly prayed from the bottom. |

After bumping the wife's F31 into our security bollard the other week, I got the repainted front bumper back from the body shop. I cleaned and refitted everything, new genuine black grilles and roundel badge. Removed the crusty and flaking V brace to rub donw and paint it with a rattle can of silver I had lying around. Replaced lots of missing plastic clips and fixings (looked like someone had been here before - the PDC cable routing was comical when I took it off). Also gave the headlights a bit of a polish while the bumper was off as they're quite badly pitted. I'm happy with the paint job and overall result.

NICE..... I've been wanting to do this but seems pricey for doing the same job as the regular brakes. what I really wanted is the MPPS Kit. but pricey too. guess I have to bite the bullet one of these days. GOOD JOB mate....

Yes, a 6 cylinder engine does the "same job" as a 3-cylinder….. brings you from A to B…… but………! Unlike the engine, brakes are safety.

Do you have an n26/20? If so, did you have to swap out the master cylinder?
