I was running about 13psi. But yeah, now that you are at 15 it would defiantly be a bit faster than mine. I will also run about 15psi when we go next, the autotuning should defiantly help you though. I would like to go drive with you soon before my JB4 upgrade arrives, and one day after I get it.

I will actually be running a beta map so it won't be autotuning.

I think I might need new turning signals, I got these today and I am not sure if they look right? Anyone have any suggestions? They will be okay for now, but I am going to look around. They were the only ones I could find.

Your turn signals should blink amber. Looks just fine to me. Here are mine to compare

What brand turning signals do you have? Are they silver coated?

What brand turn signal? Ive never been asked that question before. All I can tell you is I ordered them straight from the BMW dealership. They are OEM Blacklines.

Yeah, when I go in I am going to get some from the dealer. And they look orange in the center because they are not silver coated.

Yours defiantly look better. I am going to look around this weekend, hopefully something will turn up and if not, I can always order from Tischer.

Yes, dont go to a dealership they charged me $350 for those taillights.

But here's what you do, (see its awesome to know me

) K, you order from Tischer at $30.. Then sell your stock tail lights to an Auto Repair shop for $200. You just made $170 by modding your car.

Oh, no I dont need a whole new tail light. All I need is two bulbs, they just plug right in. It should only cost $5-10.

Alright then, you just made $195 by modding your car. Get rid of those stocks, you'll never put them back on. Ask Brian Harris who they work with for body repair. For me BMW of Murray worked with Alpine Auto, I went to AA and they wrote me a check for my stocks for $200

Wow, good idea! I wouldn't have thought of that.

Put my number in your cell. Before buying or selling any mods, always go through me. I can always save you money. Or in this case, make you money.

Wankel · 01-27-2011, 05:37 PM

Sara: Congrats on the upgrade! I'm jealous. I'll take the Blacklines off your hands when your M3 comes in if they're not spoken for yet. Downtown traffic isn't that bad...sounds like you're letting the stick handle you now!

gbree: Car looks great now. The stock all red never really bothered me, but boy do the Blacklines look good!

As far as the blacklines go, they have to go with the car since I sold the stock taillights. BMW of Murray is taking my car.
