Got this mess fixed:

BMW dent by kevinr1916, on Flickr

Dummy me managed to knock his mountain bike over in his too-small garage right into the side of car.

PDR dude fixed it to 99%. One tiny paint chip that he filled and blended from the end of the handlebar. If you know where to look you can see it, but from any distance it's perfect. $220...

On the bright side - today I sign the contract for my new custom-built LEED-certified 230mph wind-rated garage with attached living quarters in Florida. I bought the double-lot next door to my current FL home. 1100sq/ft of garage, 1300sq/ft of 2bd/2ba house. Garage will be air-conditioned with 13' ceiling on one side for a 2-post lift. I am going to be very, very poor for a while, but it will be so worth it! The house will be pretty nice too.

I built a model (not my finest work, but a quick and dirty to show some ideas to the builder):

That back patio will be a screened in lanai - I need to glue that roof on, it's just wedged in there and got very crooked in transporting it to their office!

Working on smoothing out the tune finally. Several failed experiments with altering BMW WGDC control logic, back to stock logic and really fine tuning boost onset and fuel mixes. One more revision and I might have the throttle closures cured, so close.

It's really impressive what can be done on open source XDF and TunerPro.
