Don't you love insurance? I know how you feel and have a similar story. A few years ago, my car was parked in a virtually level parking space but rolled slightly back while I was away (driver error, forgot to put parking brake on ) and tapped the bumper of a Toyota. NO damage to my car, but minor scrape to the corner of his rear bumper. My insurance said, - If claim is < $1,000 they pay the full amount and no ding to my rates or record. - If > $1,000 my deductible gets hit and so does my record and rates for 3 years. The other guy's body shop estimate was $950, subject to them finding no damage under the bumper skin (how could there be at 5 mph??). But then, can you trust them? And if he claimed a rental car for the time his car was out, that could also push me over $1,000. Wasn't worth the risk of higher rates to me so I wrote him a check for $1,000. Sure glad we pay for insurance so we get bent over on small claims. <end rant> |

To the new owner if you are on this board: Welcome! Be forewarned you have big shoes to fill, especially this Winter. You must drive the snot out of it and put many miles a year on it. You must regale us with car tales from the big city. But the good news is that your car comes with a "Winter drift and 135is snow angel" how-to class, taught free by IEDEI! Enjoy. |

Where did you get the mirrors from? I'm thinking about doing that as my next mod. Are you keeping them black?

The mirror assemblies come black. I'm having the caps painted BSM to match the car. I have a guy who sourced the parts for me.

More 135is Photoshoot Fun
Just saw this today and this picture is hilarious cause at first glance I thought they smashed it into a wall for the picture. However, maybe they should consider cleaning the car before the photoshoot? geez. Those wheels and tires!

http://cpo.bmwusa.com/certified/BMW/...m?geoZip=90035 Then this one is the primary picture of a car in atlanta. They did a good job of showing off the lines of the car. Really all I can tell is the car is black. And it rained. |
