Yes, for Msport bumper. I posted it in this thread a while back, someone was interested and never got back to me. I don't have any pics, If you want to borrow it for a week and test fit it I'm ok with that.

I'm nursing a broken leg right now so I can't drive, but PM and we can arrange something.

Does anyone know of any shops in the Dallas area that will read an SES for cheap. Autoscope in park cities is charging $125.00.

I went to autozone and they gave me a generic P code which is not used by BMW. O'Reilys scanner could not produce a code. Thanks

New 3 series owner here in Justin about 3 miles from the Texas Motor Speedway. Just saying hi. Hoping to start tuning the car for more power before spring.

UltraRacer13 · 12-08-2013, 10:05 AM

Welcome back MOE! This place wasn't the same without you. You going to go COBB this time instead of JB4? Looking forward to what you come up with.

Wook- yes I am getting old. Now I have to get a setup LIKE YOURS! I guess you could say I am stepping down to your level. Should have the new wheels this week. Tires are waiting at Discount. Went APEX EC-7 in graphite.

Assassin- When are you going to get back to BMW?

I'm selling 2 kicker 12" L7 subwoofers and a kicker 1000.1 amp if anyone around here is interested PM me

mahi77 · 12-14-2013, 03:04 AM

I've been looking around on the forums and on the web in general but I can't seem to find what tracks are in Dallas.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

I have never taken a car to the track and I'd like to give it a shot and have some fun!

A lil more driving and my car will look like it went dove hunting with Dick Cheney. Can we please get some street sweepers out (the real ones, not shot guns).

Posted in the main thread, didn't see this until just now. I've had my 07 335i a few months, I'm out near Keller. Y'all ever do meets? Also, the mechatronic sleeve is leaking. Anyone know where to get the Transmission fluid from? I contacted a few dealers and they only sell in in 20L jugs

. Planning on maybe the Cobb V3 tuner soon.

I did this repair on my E90 last year, I went ahead and changed out the filter while I was down there as well.. I puchased a kit through either ECStuning.com or Bavauto.com, I forget which one; pretty sure both of them sell individual liters of tranny fluid if thats what you are looking for. Usually they have options of both OEM and aftermarket. Good Luck!

Hello, I am new to the forum and trying to get my account up and working so I can send messages and chat. I'm in Carrollton and I am trying to find out if anyone knows who can install Orion v4 angel eyes on my e90. Thanks

Not sure. Have been thinking about parting with 2 of my cars and getting another E90. Just don't know if I can part with them, especially my S4. Once a get a few things done to the 997, then I'll have a better idea of what I'm going to do. I do miss my E90 a lot more than I thought I would.

Yellowevo84 · 12-30-2013, 10:49 AM

Hello I just want to introduce myself to the group here. I just recently picked up a 2011 335i sport sedan. Its good to know there is good support around this area. I have driven a Mitsubishi evo daily for 7 years but decided to get something better for everyday now and use the evo as the weekend toy.

Yes we do, check out ntbc, or north Texas bimmer club on fb. Are those oem zcp wheels in the picture you posted?

Gav91183 · 01-02-2014, 03:42 PM

I dunno. They were on the car when I bought them. How can you tell if they are Oem? I'm sure they are probably replica.

The rears look pretty concave, if those were replica, they would appear to have a more mild fitment, you can check by looking on the inside of the rim, and check for bmw stamp, with offsets, the rear original ones should say 10J IS25. That way you can see if they are original.
