I only detail my own cars. I'm flattered you'd let me work on your car. Thanks

What product did you use to clean your seats? It looks to have done a great job.
Thanks, glad to be in the club. I've loved the E91 since they first debuted. Griots leather products. All of their products are great.

Regarding the door pull on ECS - that's an easy swap and if the price is on par with market I'd say go for it. ECS tends to be on the high side, ime, price-wise shop around.

I think I see a leak on your oil pump housing gasket - very typical. If you pick up the Snap-On 1/4" swivel (iirc) it will make the job a 30 minute swap and only cost about $60 for the tool, gasket and fluid. This will help keep your engine bay nice and clean! Check out the tutorial and don't bother disconnecting the water pump hose. It's a waste of time and could possibly introduce a leak.

Thanks. The oil housing gasket was done recently which is where the seep probably came from. Good to know its an easy job if I have to do it. I'll keep an eye on it.

Just placed my order on ECS - they were a few bucks cheaper than the other sites I found it on.
