Have you tried ECS? BavAuto used to have them, but they closed and ECS seems to have taken over as a good supplier.

The last skyer blades......and what else do you buy an e85? A playmate. Now which are the blades going to look best on?

I finally got a set of 219M's for the Z4 today! They will be refinished but have yet to decide if I will keep the current color or try a dark grey color.

219M Wheel Specs

Front: 18x8.5" ET29

Rear: 18x9.5" ET23

Nate4641 · 05-19-2021, 04:44 PM

Got a factory new steering wheel installed today. Along with that I finally got around to cleaning the inside of the gauge cluster and installing some OEM headlight bulbs. This new wheel feels amazing, and the difference is amazing compared to my old one. My car has about 80k on the clock and my original wheel is hard and glossy. Most of the finish on the trim parts has worn off as well. Feels good to treat my car to some refreshing.

By the way, getbmwparts.com has new M wheels on sale for under 600 right now! https://www.getbmwparts.com/oem-part...el-32307836820

Agreed, any chance of something like that but with a sealed ball joint?

deemo319 · 06-02-2021, 01:38 PM

deemo319 · 06-02-2021, 01:44 PM

After screwing up my exhaust by removing the secondary cats and putting in a Magaflow resonator the drone is horrendous on the highway.

And with a trip to ZFest in Greenville looming next month I can't do that drive again with the drone so, I ordered these high flow 300 cell cats from Schmiedmann and these are very nice.

Once I have them installed I will post a short video of how they sound.

tkeneklis · 06-03-2021, 04:48 PM

You have to be a contortionist to do it and I found about four hand full of leaves stuck in a 2005 Z4. But it can be done if you follow directions from

even though is says easy job on the box.

deemo319 · 06-14-2021, 08:02 PM

We finally got my top working after getting rebuilt hinges from Top Hydraulic, new soft top motor, rebuilt kit, and two quarts of hydraulic fluid.

kaybat · 06-15-2021, 02:01 PM

e-brake feels classier

jhm5 · 06-16-2021, 09:24 AM

Installed Bilstein B6 all around. Though firm, I think more compliant than stock. Also removed CDV - great improvement.
