The Bilsteins coilovers are nice! I will get them when my wife is no longer drive the F30. The drop is pretty aggressive, 30mm to 50mm.

Bilsteins have a Comfort version that only drops the car 10-40mm which would be perfect for me! This version is already available for F3X cars except the GC! Dammit!

BC coil-overs arrive this week. Though I'm away so they won't go on for a while yet. Will let you know my thoughts when they arrive.
Think I will go with Red MP Big break kit. Hope it's a match to the red body paint. I read so much on oil catch cans for N20 engines that I got a headache. Anyway I did see a few solid reviews and pictures that made sense. The BMS one looks ok, but I want something better. I found a great unit (Bob's) that had a great video comparison review. It is used on much bigger supercharged engines. I'm adapting it with the large BMW OEM pipes/fittings (I just ordered another breather fitting/pipe from bmw for $35!) and now I'm making adapters for it all to fit together. All in it will probably cost me the same as the BMS unit, but will be way better at catching blowby and look more original. |

Question, what does C1 paint sealant do? Always see people doing this, but seems like a gimmick to me. Why would this be better than wax and how does it attach to the paint?

For MP Brakes I am going for yellow or orange on my Alpine White 428i. The catch can sounds interesting. Maybe you could make some to sell??? Hint hint. Quote:

Here is the link directly from the Bilstein website: http://web1.carparts-cat.com/default...A018001&12=130 Scroll down and look for this part # Bil_024473. Translate to english if it helps. Also do a search on this site, a member from Australia purchased this part # and verifies the drop is in the range I am talking about. Its the Comfort series. |

I'm going to purchase this soon. I hear it has to be dropped shipped directly from Bilstein so delivery could take a while. |

The coatings are actually different and truly bond to the clear coat surface, leaving an extra layer of material covering the clearcoat. Most are ceramic coatings and hydrophobic, thus preventing water spotting and grime build up to a large degree; that's also why the car is easier to clean as grime doesn't get embedded in the clear coat. They're also longer lasting and typically are good for atleast 2 years of protection.

Just did some more coding last night related to the Comfort Access hatch opening:
Reduce opening and closing delay Turned off audible and visual notification of hatch closing Activate trunk closing from key fob Activate trunk closing from the interior driver side button |
