Did a muffler delete today; had the shop make a dual outlet to fit a carbon fiber diffuser I got from some dude who runs an IG shop for CF parts that are the cheapest I've seen.

Looks super sweet and I'm happy I got to use the tips I received from a friend; sound is decent and being in CA, I gotta watch out for the cops!
Name of the cf shop? Looking for a twin outlet diffuser as well
Sent you a pm!

FINALLY ordered wheels, Austin at Vivid Racing helped me out and a set of custom finish Vorsteiner V-FF 105 for the F31 should be here in a few weeks. Just need to decide DWS06 again (which I had on wagon) or AS3+ (which I have on convertible) and will be all set for Laura at Thompson to install end of July.

Why remove headliner? Weight savings? Are those mperformance decals hard to apply perfectly?

Bought a compact spare off Bimmerzone.com; jack, tire iron, wheel chock and miscellaneous tools, off eBay (unused spare kit from an E60), BavAuto spare tire bag via ECS Tuning, F30-specific truck liner (was using the one from previous E92/335i) and ditched the run-flats for some Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3+.

Air conditioning leak down test (ok !) and recharge with freon. Yep, she's ice cold again! Just in time for next week's heat wave! $200 CDN (~ $160 USD). Worth every penny.

I also booked an appointment for a front bumper repaint (July 16) and new Luxury Line chrome bumper details + new roundel. She's a highway barge, and 90% of the wear is to the paint on the front bumper. They will also clay bar the hood to remove nibs and polish the headlight lenses, though I insisted that the headlights NOT be dismantled and removed. Too much risk of them buggering up the xenons.

She'll look like new again. She drives like day 1. 146,500 km on the odometer.

Soon I will clean out my blower motor. My interior fan is noisy at higher speeds. My bet is on leaves.

Looks great! The wheels complement the car really well, especially the chrome lip.

I've about 2.5 years of warranty left, have just installed the MPE for now and a few cosmetic mods. New wheels coming in a couple of weeks, maybe MPPK after that to keep me afloat till the warranty expires I saw a modded 335i couple months ago and that thing was like a rocket, hard to keep yourself from modding the car after you see something like that, it was just taking off

Definitely feel ya on that one. I just have a Borla Atak exhaust on mine and some coilovers. After my warranty expires I'm getting a chargepipe, FMIC, and BM3 stage 1. That's pretty much it, I don't want to add any additional power so I can keep my car long term and living in California I don't want any issues passing smog either.
