We're actually thinking of a X1 as our second more family oriented car, but havent driven one yet. Or we could wait a year or so and have a palette of X[1 through 15] cars to choose from...

Dude I'll still buy your rim, mine + cash. It'll come with PSS too so it'll be a straight swap lol. Mine is like 9.5/10 but I'm just so anal when it comes to this car! THINK ABOUT IT!!!!

Speaking of PEs, I've noticed mine seems grumpier with warmer weather, it likes to gurgle and pop a lot more on slow downs, which is just fantastic.

I just looked and don't think they sell a PE for the X1, though I wonder if it's possible to modify ours for it? Those darn X1s can be had for $30k, but can also get up to $50k. If you can find one of the rare m sport ones though, you'll at least feel at home behind our beefy steering wheel or I suppose you could just put it on after the fact if you don't want to spend the money. |

Black Lines
Installed my new Black Line tail lights today. Thanks to gregthegr8 for sending me the link to Dack's DIY thread from a while back. Saved me some time searching around for it.
It's hard to tell a big difference in the pics I took, but in person, the difference is pretty significant. The install took me about 30 minutes, but now that I've done it once, it would be much quicker the next time around. Before the Black Lines: Black Line on the left and stock on the right: Black Lines on both: Black Line close-up: Back in the garage:

Thanks! It's a subtle difference, but has a big impact on the black car, imo. And like I said, it looks better in person.

I knew seeing his would inspire you Worra.
Sadly, that first group buy never happened. Schmiedmanns seemingly won't do it but I wonder if ECS might consider it? Their price is generally much higher than schmiedmanns though, but seemingly are the only US place to get them. I've been contemplating a set for far too long and almost got a few months ago when they went on sale cause I'm a paranoid klutz. I enjoyed persuading owen2001 to be my guinea pig though. =) Now if I can convince him to fly to Los Angeles and install them. I suppose driving here is just the same. Or split the difference, install them for me in Nevada! |

I'll send an email over to Phil at ECS and see if they have any interest. I'll let you know if/when I hear back.
