Thanks

The wheels are GTC GT-CS - only available in Australia I think, but they are equivalent to VMR's.

Not at all. Sits quite flush in both front and rear.
I do have the rear guards rolled and slightly pulled though from previous setup, front guards are untouched.

I installed a new Hotchkis front sway bar. The OEM was hollow, did not expect that.

Wouldn't a stiffer front anti-roll bar make it push even more (increase the under-steer at the limit)?

Yes and no. You get a bit more push at turn in, but the car settles into the corners much better with a stiffer ASB. However, it is a patch. Its a cheap and easy way to help a bit.

I checked out the BMWhatt App ratings, it looks worth it. A lot of people using it with E90.

New dash gauge pod.

Here it is all done. I was going to do the ashtray mode but decided to go with the dash pod. I am going to still make the ash try pod just because. I have the gauge bezel part of it done, the ashtray part of it I'll work on next week.

Ash tray bezel
