What did you do to/for your 1er today?

[Esteban]

Should start a poll. Who has a crack and who doesn't?

Including who has already replaced their original.

It's going to be like 99.100% with crack and -0% without. And if they say oh mine's fine, they havent' actually looked.

LOL

Bought a pair of new in box Zimmerman rear rotors for $30! Don't need them yet so they will sit in my spares inventory.

Occasionally I'll look on Craigslist for parts and saw these for $50. The seller lived a little far from me so I offered to buy at asking price if they'd meet halfway. They responded I could have them if I came to pick up since they no longer own the car and don't need them. Being the tough negotiator I am, I offered $30 picked up. I had to go not far from their location Sunday so felt a little bad getting them for nothing.

Add this to finding rear M guide arms on Amazon for $150/pr, last week I'm on a roll for bargains. 2 days later the guide arms were $200+

Your car certainly isn't a garage queen. You seem to have loads of fun with it.

Where did you find the grill clip on colors? I've looked at fleabay and I've not found what I need for my 128 msport...

Those look pretty good. Do they fit nicely?

We had an imposter in this photo lol

I was going through my photos and came across this heap of efficiency.

Well it's not like you'd hear it creapin' up on you.

Certainly not in that company lol. Everybody else's cars sounded glorious, mine was quiet and subtle (a good thing, sometimes). And, my God, the -35i's are fast in a straight line (I kept up with ease in the corners, though)!

Yeah, the Prius is always in stealth mode.

I also got some stick-on M-Color stripes that I plan to put on under the clip-ons someday, that I can sport in the club drives when I want to be a bit more subtle. That's what I used to dot the i - just a 6mm snip off one of the dark blue strips.

Thanks for the info.

And good your car is blue (LeMans Blue?) so you could do that with the i.

PS - guess it could've been Crimson Red and still worked dotting the i by using a piece of the red strip.

Hmm, that might be true... If I do have a crack in my third brake light, it's not obvious.

Pics of theirs, anyone?

The cracks in my third brake light are obvious. You can't miss them. If you have a crack, you would know.

Here's a quick pic of the crack in the center. The other one is on the driver's side of the light.

Mine too, until I replaced it a couple years ago.
No trouble since then.
