That sucks, something similar happened to me this summer...

What happened to the Dynamic Autowerx thread? That was so entertaining while it lasted.

It was entertaining!

Shawn the owner of DAW paid to have it deleted. I guess he didn't like all the facts I was posting as were others about how shady the company is run.

Now it turns out every VSR balance sheet they have sent out with their turbos are all fakes. But I have no where to post that information!

I will be in town next week but Shawn happens to be out of town for the next 2 weeks and I can't visit anything but the shop that does the installs.


BMW Nashua is detailing my car today for free. They gave me a chevy van as a rental. No nav, base model. Thanks bmw!

Lmao. Interested to see what happens with No Guru's setup, he's been active on the forums for a while and will be posting updates. Hope he doesn't get burned too bad.

I installed a new suspension: https://www.e90post.com/forums/showt...5#post25439025

My suspension costs as much as my single turbo. How fucked is that?

Pics of cah: https://www.e90post.com/forums/showt...1264348&page=3

I should really just stop dropping money into the E92 and buy a corvette. Or save up the 5k I routinely dumb into the car each year for 3 years for mods for said corvette. But some dumb part of me wants to do race seats, m3 fenders, and hood come spring...

Happy Thanksgiving!

I lost my front lip after driving with it for like 6 years. it was an OEM Akrym CF front splitter that retailed for over a grand.

They make reps now which I will buy. However what does everyone think of an APR splitter below the lip?

Like this: https://blog.**********s.com/quick-s...ront-splitter/ i'm pre lci but you get the idea.

I would likely do this with m3 fenders w/ 335i stickers and a more aggressive hood. Without the fenders and hood I think the splitter would look out of place and be too aggressive vs. the clean look of an mtech bumper and cf lip.I could add some CF canards to really finish off the fuck boi look. Probably do seats as well at the same time now that i think about it.

Just curious as to people's thoughts.

Also, this regional forum is dead as shit.

This regional has just gone into hibernation mode. Do you not see the snow outside?!

And if you don't get Oyster wrapped Recaros then you might as well not get new seats.

My N54 is away for the winter so I don't really have anything to post about personally. This time of year I spend most of my time fixing parts on my Jeep and buying car parts for the bmw to install in the spring

This local forum is in continual hibernation mode...

All the race seats are horribly expensive man. Unless I want no recline and even then. I need to find some used and just have them reupholstered in my oyster leather.

Wake up everybody! First couple of nice days of the year this week

I took the opportunity to chop off the blight of a muffler on my wagon.

Pretty happy with the results

Car is still in "quarantine" if you will; Aka in storage. She might be coming out soon though as I can't seem to fix my DD

I have an m3 strut brace coming this week.

Car is at the body shop having a new CF lip installed as my akrym ate a curb after 6 years of ownership ;(

I still have the m3 fenders and WW tank that I guess I will install at some point. Wanted to do a hood at the same time but no idea on what hood to get...I want it vented but that means it rains in my engine bay which I hate.

When we setting up a spring meet? We can all stand 6 feet away from each other.

Took you long enough.

At this rate it's looking like summer at least. It'll take one heavy breathing newbie to get us sick.

Anyone been going on drives? I've been trying to rack on the miles over the weekends to preserve my sanity. Went to the Kanc, Portland, Rockport, and down the Mohawk Trail recently.
