So yes...personally I think it's worth it (considering you hold the steering wheel all the time). But others may think it's not worth it...it is pricey.

how much did u pay for the steering wheel?

haha, i can already image everyone next meet is going to be like sitting in your car and will be touching, gripping and leaving their sweaty palms on your new steering wheel

Thanks Lewis for the strut bar, have a nice trip!

VanSky · 07-06-2007, 08:22 PM

Anybody did the 1-Series survey sent by BMW Canada? It looks like 128i and 135i are coming to Canada

128i $32500 - $37500 range
135i $38000 - $43000 range

I got it from e-bay from the same guy that everyone else gets from. His nick is qalbeli. He ships pretty quickly considering it is coming from Poland.

Maybe MWDesign can get it for cheaper

Haha. I'll remind myself to bring some disinfectant wipes.

I blame ShiraiwaRiku for this mod :mad: ..he let me sit in his car at the last meet to see what his M-Tec steering wheel was like...and I decided that I needed to have that kind of thick wheel!

for $300 for the steering wheel, I can consider buying it
but my car has no zsp, which will cost me $900 or so including air bag....
I really have to consider if thickness/looking wise is worth $900

LateralG · 07-07-2007, 09:50 PM

guess who

fanatic · 07-08-2007, 07:39 PM

Hi,

Looks like I have just joined this group. Taking my new 335i tom am. Would anybody be able to provide some advice on where in Vancouver would be a good place to get 3M paint protection? I have heard of clearbra.ca, Downtown Auto Spa, Enpro etc. Any advice would be much appreciated. I apologize if there has been a previous post about this, but I am too hyper right now to search!
Thanks
