My e90 smileys aren't loading/working (frozen). What's the point of going on E90post then?

On a more serious note, has anyone stopped by gopro's official website or seen their Hero3 Black Edition videos? I swear everything is better black. Ahem, Grant.

Also, do you think speed element or any local shops/stores will have these in stock (tow hook license plate mount and also side marker amber delete using color matched)?
Best bet for those would be Silicon Valley Concepts (SVC) or SonicMS if you're looking local.

You know you're going to buy Advans. Also, you can pull off 18x10 +22 because I'm running 18x10.5 +20 in my rears.

What's going on fellas? Well as I washed my car today and did a light detailing I noticed that my right headlight lens has a scratch on it(2 inches maybe). It had to have been from the time I hit a truck tire tread on the I80 earlier last month. So I was wondering what would be the fix for it, I didn't notice it when I checked for other damage after the incident that left my car toothless(minus a grille) and with a cracked bumper and scrapped hood and neither did the body shop, it was that unnoticeable.

I used to build aircraft models and I learned a trick for getting rid of canopy mold seams using fine grit sandpaper, water and polishing compound. Don't want to try this yet, so I'd like to see what solutions might be offered short of buying a replacement lens. I suppose I could leave it be since it is really invisible unless you're less than 6 inches away from it looking at it dead on.

Hmmmm...your best bet definitely would be to buy new headlights. Yep, that's it. New headlights.

But I don't want to be hella stretched...I want to utilize as much as possible.

Also, it would be 18x9 +24 up front. And these are the dark gunmetallic color, which is a lot darker than my vmrs.

I prefer the contrast of a lighter gunmetal with a black car. You probably couldn't tell the other night because my rims were so dirty..

Still waiting on pics from the JG BBQ

SonicMS or SVC will have the tow + the color matched reflectors.

I think it is a 328 no? Black lower grills usually indicates that, unless its modded of course

I never noticed that but his profile on the side says he drives a 335i, so I assumed it was one.
