Respect to my yankee brethren going through, what now, the 47th massive storm in a row? But, yeah.... Sorry (not sorry...)

Damn, that's nice! Over here we're supposed to be having the biggest rainstorm of the season. Course that doesn't mean much considering this is drought country. lol

That's pretty sweet!
I was just wondering what a 1M bumper would look like with the empty fog light sockets. Really not bad at all.

Maybe put pipes in them to make it look like machine guns (James Bond style) - I'm thinking perforated barrel shrouds!

How about awesome muzzle brakes that aid with downforce.

Finally took the time to shed the winter season filth on friday. Did a full two-bucket wash with the foam gun and took my time doing it right. Left with the wife's car for the weekend and came back to rain on the first day driving the 1 again lol.

Not a huge upset though since I planned to wash again this week and clay-bar/re-apply the ceramic coating and some wax!

I completely restored a set of 21" sport wheels for the Cayenne I have, and I completely agree -- the last time I'll be doing that DIY.

I'm so happy and completely obsessed with the new look. For anyone who hasn't seen this thread:

...I DIY'd a full 3M wrap in gloss white and re-did my wheels in anthracite gray.

Turned out incredible. Leaving only the door handles and part of the rear trunk exposed looks clean -- especially with those wheels!

Thanks Chad! I'm not 100% sold on the trunk part yet but I think I'm keeping the door handles

Hey Matticus91, I think you need a new profile pic and sig pic. Or are you going to wait until you make a final decision about the hood?
