I was going to go to Karma yesterday with my wife but we ended up at Raagini instead. What kind of food does Karma have on their buffet? Is it a variety of stuff or just sushi?

Gotta say I'm not a buffet fan, but the one at Karma was good. Variety of stuff plus sushi.

Nice, we'll have to go there next week for our lunch date.

Installed my EURO LCI tails today, coded them, and installed cf license plate frames. Still need to install the high kick cf spoiler. I'm not sure if I trust the 3M body tape to install it. Might bring it to a shop and have it installed with polyurethane adhesive stuff.






Now I want to order more parts,

Coding with the iCarly app is sooo damn simple.

Time for football. GO PATS!


edit: I was thinking of getting 4'' black exhaust tips. Thoughts? http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1142829 good price...would help complete the rear end look...or I could buy the cyba tips: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=237510 I think the 4'' black chrome would fit best. the stock exhaust sticks out so far and look like pee shooters compared to 4'' semi flush.



Think E92 Carbon Fiber Grills are too ricey or too much?

Used the 3m, I got 30lb outdoors double sided mounting tape. I had to remove it recently and it came off with out leaving residue. I also had to pleasure of trying to rip it off because the fitment of my highkick sucks so much that when we slapped the spoiler on we f*d up and had to redo it. It is some strong stuff, costs about 8 dollars (will have left overs for next time too).

Btw the lights look nice.

Do you do any other coding? I am still looking for a trans flash and other coding done to my e92...

EDIT-

Yes to the 4" tips they look sexy af. What diffuser are you running? Yes to the carbon fiber grill as well, its very subtle most people prob won't notice it at first glance anyways.

I have a coding cable and the Carly app. So I can code everything the app allows. I can also do MHD flashes but I have yet to. A coding cable is $30. Very useful for the price.



I believe you need Winkfp to flash the tranny:

It does not look hard.

Just saw it, looks like you can code quite a lot actually.

I can't wait for you to do my trans flash at the next lunch meeting.

My cable is kline only. No dcan. K line was early 07s only afaik.

anyone upgrade the rear sway for the m3 one? I am seeing posts about a 20mm but I am pretty positive the rear sway for a e92 m3 is 22.5 mm, can someone clarify?

CF grilles look awful. Save it for the front lip, side skirt extensions and high kick rear.

Exhaust tips look pretty good, but I'm a fan of the Cyba brushed 3.8 models.

Congrats on the LCI tails. Now get that M-Sport rear bumper!

Use some betalink for the spoiler. Won't have a gap like the 3M stuff when done properly.

Yeah i'm keeping my grills as is. I don't want them to yellow either.

I am torn between the brushed or the chrome black. As he hasn't replied with his paypal I still haven't ordered. the 4'' just looks too large 3.8 looks perfect.

The betalink and applicator was like $50 right? I may see if a bodyshop will install it for like $75 bucks with betalink or a similar adhesive. Any more and I'll just do it myself.

I think i'm going to see if headlights are an option this winter and then maybe the bumper and sideskirts in the spring. Both are a large investment for poor lil ol me. When I do the msport I want that DD cf inlay + paint and install is $$$.

Which skirt extension is everyone looking at? I am interested in getting a pair and a lip probably after winter.

I've also read about horror storys of betalink, I used 3m for my high kick. It holds nicely but the fitment of my spoiler is pretty crappy to begin with so you'll see a gap on the bottom side anyways.

I haven't done much research honestly. I want it semi inexpensive as they only stick out a bit and no one is going to get on their hands and knees to look at the quality of the weave etc. I would ideally like something around the $300 price point.

Not $600 http://www.forcewerkz.com/bmw-e92-m3...-carbon-fiber/

That Carly app looks awesome! Can you code the windows to close with the key fob? I didn't see that as one of the points. My adaptive headlights aren't working anymore so this would be great to get rid of that stupid light that comes on every time.

In other news, I finally fixed the rough idle issue I was having. It was just a faulty ignition coil. $30 later and she is running awesome again.

Yes, I have my windows set to close when holding the lock button. Also, I set it so the mirrors fold at the same time.

I was always scared about the mirrors moving each time. I would hate for it to fail in the up position. Then again it's a reason to upgrade to m3 mirrors or whatever I guess.

I don't do it when it's cold out. It's set to a delay, so you have to hold the lock button for 3+ seconds before they fold. I usually don't have the windows down when it's cold so no need to raise.

But hopefully the car will be going on vacation / teardown for LSD / MOSFETS / body work. Storing for the winter soon and shopping for winter cars now!

[Down_Shift]

torgus, don't go w the cyba black times. I have them on my M. They came discolored and needed to be heavily buffed. It was over spray or something(?) I emailed them to complain. They didn't give a F.


Don't use beta link. 40/50# double sided tape and painters tape it for a day!
Just redid my spoiler again because it was lifting. This seemed to fix it.
Going to do my roof spoiler tomorrow and also add some silicone on the glass.


I'm looking for side skirt extensions too!

I'm waiting for the CArly app to support dvd in motion. Really miss that option on my car.
Does anyone local want to code out my seat belts chimes?

Basically rebuilt. How much did you buy the car for, and then invest into it?
