Can you put on my dimisia tips or however you spell it.

No exhaust shops want to work on it because they are afraid of welding near the wire for the exhaust flap. Also, I am taking it to places like monroe so these guys probably don't know much anyways.

If you want to stop down one day we can take a look at what you got and go from there. I dont see a reason why we would not be able to do that for you.

I was replying to you as you were calling, it was quite weird. Ya, like I said we are pretty booked up. Sorry we could not get you in quicker.

Post some pics when she is all done!

Mod Friendly Dealers-Just a FYI
This is the second time I have gone to P&W for a inspection, wiper blades, oil change with the following mods:

AFE DCI
golf Tee Mod (disconnected wire)
Modded Clutch Delay Valve
Clutch Stop

And none of the 3 SA's mentioned anything.

If you drive my car it is obvious by the engine/exhaust sound and feel of the clutch that the car is modded.

Any of you guys know where to find the coolest graffiti in the burgh?

Yeah I am, I got the car all cleaned up and was thinking I would like to snap a few cool shots.
Ian you know you are always welcome bro!

I found one place that looks really cool, it is inside of an old abandoned building, found it on-line after searching "graffiti in pittsburgh", not sure if I could get my car in there safely, but cant find the location of the building to check it out.

O HELLA BMW · 06-27-2011, 08:02 AM

today is a beautiful day, if you guys want to take pics somewhere im down!

heres 2 rolling pics my friend took on his iphone lol

^the 2nd pic makes my rear wheels look like i have excessive camber, but thats just an illusion it doesnt look like
that in person.

TwinTurboXI · 06-27-2011, 08:20 AM

You guys wanna try to set up a mini meet some evening this week?

328skidpad · 06-27-2011, 09:56 AM

Weather looks good all week... I am in...

SpmnE9zero · 06-27-2011, 10:05 AM

I am not gonna be able to make it out this week at all fellas, really busy week, plus my car goes in for a recall on Wednesday and I leave Thur to Seneca Lake and wont return until Monday.

But make sure you guys take some cool pics and post them up!

ianthegreat · 06-27-2011, 10:21 AM

I'm in, just let me know. Gives me some incentive to clean my car :/

TwinTurboXI · 06-27-2011, 11:21 AM

What evening works for you guys?

bgrab88 · 06-27-2011, 02:06 PM

hey guys, need some reccomendations. I have the m6 replica rims on my car. The guys over at P&W say they are all bent after a bad experience I had with a pothole (more like a hole in the earth). I can either pay $125 a rim to have them repaired or buy new rims (leaning towards the new rims). Can anyone advise me on the correct size i could put on my 08 335xi? Would these fit?

I gotta be honest here.
You are going to be right back into the same situation if you get those wheels and you hit another pothole.
They look great, but most of those wheels on Ebay are gravity cast wheels. I wouldnt go any (grade wise) lower than a low pressure cast wheel.

These companies will keep you right around the same price range you are looking at. Check them out.

Vortex Tuning
Linea Corse
Sonic Tuning

If you are dead set on those wheels, they will fit, may even have room for a 5mm spacer if you wanted to go a lil wider.
