Hey guys, sorry to change the subject but I am moving to Ann Arbor in two weeks (will be working in Detroit for a year) and wanted to get my windows tinted. Where should I go? How much should I expect to pay? Thanks for your help. By the way I have another AW.

The two that I can vouch for (even though I haven't had my 1er done, yet) are Shaders and Sun-Shade.

If you run a search for "tint" in this thread it'll bring back results on them.

Also, can you hit me with a PM and include everything found in THIS document so that I can add the details?

Thanks and welcome! :smile:

Hi Shawn,

Read on the e90 that the code has been broken for 81 and it should be a couple of weeks. I'll try to come for aug 2nd. just give me a couple of weeks to confirm. I have a 6m old son and my spouse works alt weekends. After seeing the blown turbos etc etc, I would reco you the dinan for their research and peace of mind. I'll also keep an eye on shark injector in the future. If Jim C's map makes less power, I would leave it. I am a very happy chap with D2:headbang:. Not sure If I would go for the D3.

Yeah, I'm strongly leaning towards D2 right now, but I'm not sure that'll happen 'til next spring some time. I'm very happy with the car thus far and am afraid that if I get too crazy with it right away I'll end up where I did with the Subaru... Not that going mod-crazy isn't fun - this one just costs a lot more than the Subie did!

What's speculation on D3? I haven't heard much of anything...

Jason, don't lie to yourself. You are totally leaning towards MASSIVE modification of your car. The only one who doesn't know this is you. You wife surely does.....

She wasn't in the least bit surprised when my grills showed up yesterday and never asked, "How much?" So I'm sure she's expecting the worse, but I really do think I'll hold out on this one until it's nearly paid for.

I can't say that I wouldn't consider doing mods that BMW would be hard-pressed to prove caused issues, but won't be going to a single, big turbo setup prior to pay-off. :wink:

If this motor cost the same as what it cost me to replace my STi's block, I'd probably already be neck-deep in mods, but that's not the case!

I haven't gotten any votes for a Dyno Day, yet... I need people to speak up so that I know what to plan!

Thus far dinner and Woodward are on the menu.
