Modified my headlamp switch and coded to enable rear fog lights.

This guide is all anyone needs. Coding is accurate too.

Why???
I want the wife to be able to do some track days. So I figured it was a good compromise. Also, I move from the east coast to San Francisco now so manual is rough here lol.

I had the car serviced yesterday. They also had to rework the corkscrew connection for v-strut crossbeam. Is this anything to be concerned about?

Installed a Fabspeed Sportcat today! Great sound!! Not too loud when cruising but glorious when mashing the go pedal. Not to mention, the burbles and pops are even more pronounced when going off throttle.

Thank you @mike@x-ph.com for the product and quick delivery!

Did you change something to get the order of the iDrive screen like this? Mine goes Media/Phone/Nav on the first screen. After I saw your pic I went looking through the settings to see if I could change the order of the tiles but couldn't find it.

Had my spoiler installed. The fitment is really off. I'm so irritated. Since this is the first one they made, I hope they will remedy this. Otherwise, I'm going to toss it and take the $500 loss.

Did a local place build it so you can easily have them take a look at it and deal with them?

No, a bigger company made it. We're working on a solution.

How do you feel about your M mirrors? Good fit? You like them? If so who makes them?

Did you wrap your mirrors in a cf wrap as well?
How did that turn out?

This looks interesting - any more info and pics? Have you changed the backing plates too - they look Carbon.

I find it strange that there are no brake cooling ducts as standard when there are on standard 3 Series and Minis.

They're the only option for M mirrors so I guess I like them better than stock. They're autoid. Fitment is perfect.

Likely BMW intervention code 10033970100: "F87 Verschraubung Verbindungsträger V-Strebe nacharbeiten". Nothing special.

I called for a price and they had five star reviews so I used them. I ended up not paying him because he knew I would be leaving a bad review so he refused to take my money. Now i have to decide if it's worth mounting this way or not. What a joke.
Maybe get it wrapped in the color of your choice ?

Beware. Some men may respond: "OK. In your place or mine ?"
