Got a few things done over the weekend while waiting for the lowering kit to get here.
the KW kit arrived in Nashville the 21st. Not another scan on it until the 25th. It went back to California... Anyway, it's now in Memphis as of yesterday. Maybe it'll deliver Wednesday like the tracking shows. Crazy... UPS is smoking crack.
Anyway, I went with yellow DRLs off Ebay. A buddy has them on his car with good results, so I am giving them a go.

The shifter trim was bubbling. I couldn't find a reasonable priced OEM piece to replace it with, so I ordered some Alcantera and wrapped it.

The car came with a carbon spoiler, but I had my sights on something else. Removal was a royal PITA. Whoever installed the spoiler used what I think is windshield sealant. This stuff is very good and hard to remove.

The rubber eraser wheel was working overtime.

When I got done, there was a good bit of sealant. Really unnecessary.

I installed the Bimmer Plug high kick spoiler. It fit perfectly. Very happy about this purchase.

The car is still in the air. I've removed the front struts and rear springs in preparation for the KW kit when it arrives.
