Any Shreveport experience with any local body shops. I know Orr BMW here doesn't have a body shop, but I may go to them and see where they send their work to get done.

Also considering going maybe CSL trunk or Amuse trunk and aftermarket diffuser...any thoughts?


Thankfully, doesnt look like any damage to the quarterpanels, hit was just dead center, moved the trunk latch and bent the trunk.
I hate to break it to ya but it looks like that left quarter panel is going to have to be pulled. If done right it won't need paint. The good thing is it looked like it isn't dented and can be fixed with no body work. looking at that picture it def looks like something is off. Like there is a big valley between the bumper and quarter panel.

If you ever want to take a ride in/drive a quick 335i, let me know; I am in Shreveport quite often. You may get the "mod bug" if you chose to do that though haha

Hehe, already have the modbug, I think you post on 318racing as well right? I've known Jacob for a while, so i got quite a few rides in his 135i when he had it prepped up.

Police report is in, dropped it off with insurance, and just incase things don't go my way with insurance, i'm dropping a copy off with the lawyer tomorrow.

Haven't been here in a while...If anyone knows someone looking for clean 189 staggered wheels, I'm selling the ones from my 08 335i sport pkg coupe. $550 picked up, $600 shipped, no tires. Boxed up and ready to roll. Let me know

So I've been getting a CEL with a 29F3 code under WOT. Which is the low pressure fuel sensor. I've been having this for months, but I only get it under WOT. As long as I drive it normal I don't get and CEL. Have any of you ever had to change this? According to this thread, http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=800707, its not a hard job, I just need a pry bar lol. But anyone who let me know.

I get that code all the time, but that's because of the tune. You don't have one yet, do you?

Well the honeymoon is over. 41K miles and my first major malfunction. Got in Vader Thursday morning, car started right up but gear shift would not work. It moved back and forth but did not engage. Towed to BH. They say it might be the megatronic ? And they will need to pull the entire transmission. 5 day job at least. Oh we'll, and I was going to buy it off lease. :-(

Doc 13' M3 Competition - 5+ years after production started and that car still amazes me on how good of a daily driver/drivers tool it is
