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

[ShocknAwe]

Took a stab at a full front end paint correction. Front bumper was absolutely peppered with road rash, and had clear coat erosion from bugs in several places. Had a HUGE (bird-dirt related) pitted area on my hood as well and was tired of looking at it.

Not perfect by any means, but looks great. Have to get right up on the bird dirt erosion to tell it's there now. I might try another round of compound on that spot again later as the paint isn't completely smooth, but a little concerned about the clear coat thickness there, really hit it hard. Going to finish the rest of the car tomorrow hopefully.

The first thing we did for our 135is is to bring it home. The first mod was to replace the antenna with a much shorter one. It's been a great car thus far.

Drove my parent's 128i cabriolet with the top down to work this morning. A sunny 56F with full blast heat in my face and ass warmers set to the max!!!
Can't wait for the drive home in warm weather!

Nice, wish I could just wash and dump. The water is so hard here that if I do, I'll have mineral deposits all over that will then have to be polished out.

Not particularly today but over the last 2 weeks. Got these installed: VRSF (DP,FMIC, CP), Vibrant Resonators, LCI Blacklines, and 1Addicts sticker \

Rode all summer last year with just the Downpipe and Berk Axleback and the highway drone/rasp/noise was too much for me. The Resonators basically eliminated all of it and made everything much easier on the ears




Just in case the stickers can be bought from forum member flyingfortress here:

My 1er did something for me (sort of): I got my "goodwill gesture" battery refund check from BMW NA.

So I took a picture of the new addition to the "fleet" and gave up for the day.

Martini time...

Washed the car using Optimum No Rinse for the first time... Pretty impressed with the results, though I haven't looked at the finish under a strong light to see if there was any scratching on the surface.

It still took me about two hours like a normal wash, but I only used four gallons of water.

Are these things prone to rock chips haha my e46 m3 never had a chip in 10 years lol and my e82 has 2 chips.... How's it look when they fix a rock chip can you still see where the chip was? Would you mind taking a pic? Just curious?

Been doing that for three years now, old man. I posted a review on the condition of my paint after 10 or 15k miles and it still looked 90%+ flawless. ONR takes practice, I can wash my 1er within 20 minutes now in the garage.
