By the way DC crew, I have some mtec fogs that are brand new and are color matched to your xenons if anyone is interested... Ill even install them myself...

Shucks I just ordered my hyperwhites to go with the arctic white fogs. If I had ordered the white Luxes I might consider your mtecs...

I'm always a few steps behind you

Well, after going through about 4 different sets of foglights in a month, I think I have found my match...

yeah!!!!!!! a toga partyyyyy

I'll bring the Bong

FrankoQ · 06-01-2006, 11:57 PM

Wow, I got busy tonight...
removed those dam decals from the dealer
installed mudgards
installed the alarm

I also discovered that the jack from an old Toyota Corolla fits
perfectly in the bimmer's jack points.

Hot dogs and burgers sounds good. I have a grill so we are set.
I also have a cooler.

We can have a 2 step process...
First, your nice bimmer will be handed over to AJ who will install the Lux rings
Do not worry. there is a fire station nearby just in case.
Next, you hand your bimmer to Shim who will zaino it and tell you jokes while he does that. If you are nice to him, he can also zaino under the car too.

it will be fun

Ok that's it. time to rest. night night everybody.

You guys need to get a hold of Poldim, he's longing to have a cook-out like this, and also don't forget geeslice Bratwurst was offered. khite needs to get into this action, for something like this needs to be photo-document

I called Joe Gibbs, he said he's kinda tied up finishing this roster, maybe the next time, same with Mark B.

KL2DC · 06-02-2006, 09:05 AM

Frank:

you have a grill we can use...awesome! So its alright if we go ahead and plan a cookout of sorts? Please lay out some ground rules, wouldn't want to wear out your welcome...you know what crazy kids we are

Ase2dais: you're coming right?

Will ask poldim (is he out of town?) and hknite as well (haven't heard from ty in a while, he's busy enjoying his car)

KL2DC · 06-02-2006, 09:31 AM

AJ, dibs on the mtecs...just confirmed-changed my order to whites

herd mentality

... Sorry thd13, you're on your own on the hyperwhites (works better for you and your mystic blue, though)

cookout sounds fine.
hope we can get the installations done, then eat then hopefully will be dark so
we can take some night pics of the final product.

as for rules... let's just have fun, do the installs, eat, have a few beers. the wife will deal with you if you are not behaving.

Frank, that sounds like one heck of a plan...

Lets come up with the list of items to bring... Frank... You shouldnt get anything for this being as we are invading your house when the time comes...

Here goes the list:

1. AJ - Hamburger meat and hot dogs (and Lux kits of course)
2.
3.
4.

bavarian19 · 06-06-2006, 08:39 PM

I know it might seem a little redneck, but I say we make pools in the back of our cars... Like rednecks make out of their pickup trucks, we can do the same with our hidden compartemnt in the trunk...

We can look as cool as these dudes:

KL2DC · 06-06-2006, 08:46 PM

Guys, continuing on:

1. AJ - Hamburger meat and hot dogs (and Lux kits of course)
2. Donny - Buns & Beer

3.
4.

FrankoQ · 06-06-2006, 10:49 PM

1. AJ - Hamburger meat and hot dogs (and Lux kits of course)

Hey local DC metro e90posters are welcome...just keep an eye out for date/time in this thread and the DC metro thread...

FrankoQ · 06-09-2006, 11:11 AM

based on mds82 progress status report...
Looks like the first 10 sets will be done this weekend (ours).

Guess this guy is not a soccer fan.
Anyway, saturday (6/17) is no good for me.
Sunday the 18 is wide open. (Father's day for some of us)
The 24th... I have to be somewhere at 4pm. if we can finish by 3ish... fine.
The 25 is ok.

urge.
