Swapped my hpfp this morning, pretty easy overall. Biggest pain was removing the rear bolt for the hpfp, and had to be careful re-installing it so it wouldn't drop but I had a trick up my sleeve! I'm sure removing the intake manifold would've made it easier but it's definitely not necessary. Car is running smoother, and definitely feel a better throttle response!

Got it back with the MSport front bumper, thanks to some flying highway debris and Allstate. Went for an evening mountain drive to celebrate.

No, it’s a rep from Ikon Motorsports. Great fitment and quality, though, and the body shop didn’t need the MSport fender liners or brake ducts that I bought to make it work.

I was considering it but there are a couple write ups floating around.

Very very true. My back does not appreciate me carrying them around!

The bumper came with the grilles and fog lights (plus an extra set of fog lights) for $324 with free shipping. The body shop charged Just over $600 for removing the old one and painting/installing the new one; probably too much, but covered by insurance, so whatever. And then I Just bought H11-to-9006 pigtails for the new fog lights which cost $13. So just shy of $1k all in.

Bought an E46 M3 hood so I can mold the power dome to my current car. It was only $10 so I could not pass it up.

Drove my E90 328i on a 3 hour 185 mile freeway loop. Car briefly hit 100 mph with an average speed of 80 mph. Put a smile on my face and reminded me that I don't need a 335i to enjoy an E90
