I have not used front plate in 20 plus years. 16 in Columbus. I have been stopped but no ticket but some areas here love to stop for it. Downtown the meter maids will ticket the car if parked on the street even with the plate in the window since that is not legal either

Oh wow - I've been down to Cbus a few times and had no idea. I have never had a front plate on mine (or any of my cars for that matter).

Fuck the meter fairies, they are the only ones that care about the front plate.

Anyone happen to have a set of 513m or 219m wheels? I'm thinking of ordering a F30 BBK and my winter 193s won't clear.

I just had my fuel injectors installed at MAG. They were cheaper than Auto Assets and about the same as Evans Automotive. They both were willing to install them though. Best Motor Werks was not willing to install parts I bought.

I don't have holes or a front plate and refuse to put one on. Sometimes I put it in my front window if I'm worried because I've heard of Cbus cops cracking down about it.

And although your apt doesn't allow you to work on your car, doing a small repair shouldn't bother anyone. My last place said no repairs, and I did a few small things here and there and no one was bothered. Maybe not great advice, but no one objected.

Graphite e91 328i 6MT RWD PreLCI in Cincinnati saying hi. It's bone stock right now. Come spring I hope to have the three stage intake, AAW tune for a 330, and suspension refresh/upgrade. And some style 220's if I can convince my brother to upgrade the shoes on his e90 M3.

Anyways, cheers all!

New not perfect E9x 335 Intercoolers

I have two Mishimoto intercoolers that I did not use because they are imperfect and Mishimoto didn't want them back. They have fin packs that are not perfect (for me anyways) on the inside where the cores are welded together but most people would never look inside to notice and they should work fine. These are black with the factory style connectors.

PM for pics

$75 each

I'm in the Akron area looking for an after hours BMW mechanic. Willing to pay cash. I have a 08 335xi just replaced plugs and coil packs, new valve cover gasket, and added a oil cooler. I have a JB4 G4 on it. It went in to limp mode so I changed the plugs and coils it is stilling kicking all these codes. It had a new HPFP put on two years ago at the dealer also had index 11 and 12 injectors put at the same time.

Late response because I'm not on this site much anymore, but Koala Motorsport is about a half hour east of downtown Cleveland and they are excellent. Another alternative that is closer to downtown is Larchmere Imports.

You could try TG Motorwerks based in Hudson area. Brian is a very nice guy and could at least point you in the right direction.

Hey everyone!

I'm looking to buy 1 or two gently used 225/40/18 tires. No patches or plugs. Looking for even wear too.

Thank you,
Jeff

Canton, OH here. Haven't went to any meets or cruises in some years. I went to Superfly in Akron at the end of this past summer, which was a real nice turnout [with quite a few guys from ECS there with their 535's/335i's]. I went to a couple other small meets around the area too.

Also, SmokeysDyno hosts some nice get togethers occasionally, there's also Akron Cars n Coffee I believe.

I'd really like to plan a trip down to Mid Ohio Raceway at some point.

Definitely recommend Mid-Ohio. I try to go as often as I can. Try to link up with the local BMWCCA or PCA to attend one of their events. Highly recommend them if you've never been to Mid-Ohio before.
