I used 3m tape for the aero lip and it came on the m3 spoiler. Been on there for 4 years and 60k up to 140mph.

Stopped by BMW Orland Park's new location to order a touch up pen, really nice place. Probably one of the biggest dealer lots I've ever seen.

back to e85... i thought that it wasn't available near by so i kind of put it out of my head the last day or so. then i stopped to get fuel today and saw this. now i'm back where i started. what are the true gains and can it mess up the injectors and/or affect the warranty?

you won't see any gains without a tune, all it does is raise the knock threshold by upping the octane so you can safely run more boost. Helps with timing corrections though, but you'll also lose MPG. Noone really knows yet how it will effect these cars long term because noone has been using it that long. In the short term everything seems fine so far.

i didn't realize that nbc bought the rights to the olympics and decided not to air it live in the US. not only that, they edited it before showing it. the rest of the world has been posting pix hours before we got to see the opening cerebration. in this day and age, we don't do a live stream? we're so pathetic sometimes.

They're not going to air it live in the middle of the day when everyone is still at work here.

Well usually they do air expanded coverage of the games (like tomorrow they start at 4am) but Primetime 7-11pm is when the good stuff is on.

I think you can get live feeds on Cable via other NBC channels, I watched the Spain-Japan soccer game yesterday way up 785 on RCN, normally NBC 605/CNBC 651.

But I agree. And like Beijing, NBC is all about USA, I want to see all the great contest, regardless of whether the US is contending...

and that opening ceremony sucked, and NBC announcers banter was just awful...
