That nice CF rear spoiler looks like the same ECS Tuning M-Performance replica that I bought for my E90 335i.

Nice man. Here in the US most of the CF M-Performance stuff has been discontinued. So even if we wanted it, we often times can't get it.

Not much happening here.

Bought an OEM oil bag.

Aligned the tips with the new almost invisible hardware compared to the ones that came with the tips.

Freshened up some bolts.

My car is still on OEM PSS from 2016 with actually pretty good pattern (29k miles).
For the first time I am abandoning Michelin but these new Continental Sportcontact 7 wins pretty much every test? And cheaper then Michelin as well.

Just recieved them in 245/35 + 265/35

Hope you like them.
I've run conti before, but always come back to Michelin.
I haven't run those though.
Let us know how you like them

Im a Michelin fan-boy, trust me BUT I have spoken to some people in Sweden with different M-cars who have tried these and they praise them!

The problem is that these Contis in the correct M2-sizes are not available in the US, that's why there are lack of reviews :/

But in Europe this tire is a must have accordingly.
