Harlie, Vin and Biz your 3 AWs look most awesome. Must be quite a sight together in motion on the roads. Wish I was there to see for myself

That looks pretty neat. I like the idea of using the existing tow hook point too. However, it won't be good for track days because I think it's a requirement to have your tow hook on the bumper, or it's a good idea to have it on anyway.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Credit has to go to Nik, Yanni and Angus for taking the photos though. Our 1ers always look sweet in action

That one looks good, just not a fan of the price! Buy 2 and go halves on shipping?

Harlequin · 02-13-2012, 09:03 PM

Heh.. Tempting... But I wanna get the ///M Mirrors and I'm about to pull the trigger on a BMS Charge Pipe and Downpipe. I can get the pair for $600 including shipping at current exchange rates...

What should I expect to pay for DP install?

N55 mods are so much cheaper!! Still the power mods are relatively cheap compared to suspension or cosmetic mods. I'd get the CP and DP for $600, that's cheap! DP install is between $350-$450 for N54. I think the N55 may be easier because there is only outlet form the turbo to the midpipe. Not sure if there's any more room in there though.

Harlequin · 02-14-2012, 12:02 AM

Those 2 mods aren't bad but take a look at the difference in price for intakes...

Pretty sure the install for the N55 DPs is a lot easier than the N54 mostly cause there's only 1 pipe so alignment is much easier... but I guess we'll find out

LuxAngelEyes · 02-21-2012, 10:53 AM

Awesome pictures!!! This one is my favorite showing the difference between stock and LUX

There is this: http://www.rennline.com/Rennline-GoP...ductinfo/PH01/

Fits the E82...

Try putting blue painters tape down on the paint first. THEN put whatever on top of that.

BMW86 · 03-05-2012, 11:25 PM

Thinking about pulling the trigger on the Rennline Towhook $95 + Towhook Mount $50

Anyone else interested? Might be worthwhile to save on shipping costs.
