Remember 50% is the legal limit and you're just asking for a ticket if you go darker. Ive been pulled over for tint with 50% on a black on black car. Looks darker with a dark colored vehicle

Very likely me, yep. AW w/ anthracite wheels. I am always on the lookout for yours, just never see it. I head down Chatsworth a lot as well.
The wheels are the Apex ARC-8's, I really like them. Looks are a personal opinion of course but they are light and the offsets about perfect. The CF spoiler as well as the window tint, short shifter and exhaust were put on by the previous owner, all BMW parts. He had tint film on the tail lights which I peeled off, decided I did like the look and had Raymond's spray on instead. I have some M3 bits in my garage but have yet to put them on. Hopefully soon! Just been busy w/ other stuff as I'm sure everyone knows the feeling. |

Coming Your Way
Hey all!
Moving to Minneapolis in January from NC (crazy I know). Just picked up an '08 135i 6-speed, sports package. SGM with Coral Red. Previous owner had Agency Exhaust and Ingen turbo intakes installed, 335 HP overall. Sounds and feels amazing. I am addicted. Glad to see ya'll are here. What do ya'll recommend for snow tires and winter ready supplies to keep in the car? I'm in for a frozen scare being from the south! |

If you're under maintenance you can choose between Motorwerks BMW or BMW of Minnetonka. If not there are a few indy shops in the area. I run 3 shops that are well equipped to help you out including half life oil changes even if you bring your own parts. let us know if you need help figuring things out on winter setup. all the guys here know what you'll need. I wouldn't even pass Chicago without a winter setup.

Pretty positive it's not under maintenance, I've been taking my bimmers to indy shops for a while so it's no big deal. What's the name of your shops up there? I'll definitely make sure to bring it by for maintenance. |

Lots of good places in town including Imola, JB Eurotech, ORR & others. I run 3 BP service stations. They are not big powerhouse shops like some of the others but we do have quite a bit of ability to do stuff. Everyone has their favorite shop & that "it's the best" I've found whomever you develop a good relationship with & can trust is my favorite shop. The shop I office out of has been here since 1964 & my newest tech started here in 1985. Most everyone on here will be able to point out their favorite shop. also depends on on where you live. Do you have a place lined up to live yet?

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll start looking around the internets. Looks like you got a solid business with lots of experience.
Waiting on the relocation company to contact right now. Office is in Minnetonka but we'd like to live closer to the city. Hopefully somewhere with a parking garage or some sort of covered parking. Expected to be a lot more $$$ though. |

I am thinking of selling my snows: MSW Type 22's and Conti Wintersport... probably 1,300 miles as i purchased in January last year. let me know if interested in talking.
Think I will just drive my jeep or truck this winter and put the 135 and convertible at the cabin.

Scott, I have no personal experience with local powdercoating, but lots of friends over at the local club/forum Eurowerks.org have done so. You might search around over there for suggestions... maybe start with this thread:

Wasnt getting much action on this question in the regular forum so I will try here. Looking for someone in Mn to rebuild my diff with a Wavetrac or quaife. I have found a good deal from a good vendor online (1735.00 out the door)but shipping may be a breaking point. I will R&R the diff and deliver the punkin and Unit. Thanks Jay

Picked up my 135 yesterday!!
Just wanted to say hi and check in on here. After being torn between an MCoupe and a 135 for quite some time, I finally decided and picked up a '11 AW/BLK 135 M-Sport yesterday. Such an amazing car so far. I can't wait to get some sticky tires on it and get a bunch of time behind the wheel this summer.
