Fiftypl Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Fitted new rear inner lights on my loon this morning at 07:00 was cold Wysyłane z mojego iPad przy użyciu Tapatalk HD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjn Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Can't believe there was a queue for the air machine at ~8am on Good Friday! Anyway, topped the pressures upto 2.6 bar for the fronts, and 3.1 bar for the rears. They're a little over standard for MV2's with 225 and 255 rubber. Took advantage of the open motorway, and erm.......exceeded the 70 limit...... And whatdya know, no wheel wobble! Put the brakes on, still no wobble! Going to keep an eye on it, as i've a 500 mile round trip to do tomorrow. Blair 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferg Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Stripped the tint film off the front indicators, wading 100% happy with the colour, had a bronze tinge to it rather than grey/smoked. And with the topaz grills the front end was a bit dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mit Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 uploadfromtaptalk1364400047763.jpg All of a sudden my repair bill doesn't seem too bad, just gutted mit only just got front sorted under warranty. No longer Living the dream. Took them 3 months to repair, also got an £18k bill for accident exchange courtesy car that had to go to court to settle! I refused to support them as I thought it was excessive too but they told me I'd be liable for the charges if I didn't :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wash Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Changed the wheels and washed it. I've already lowered it about 40mm but I think it needs to go a fair bit lower to pull these wheels off properly so I'm going to save up for some decent coilovers now.

Greg320d Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Just rinsed all the salt off and then washed it rinsed off after, but bugger drying it my hands feel like someone else's. Was going to leave it as have a funny feeling it might get wrote off but then again thought best to clean it just in case. All the neighbours have been looking at me like I'm on crack for doing it, it even briefly snowed for a couple of mins. No longer Living the dream. Dude that's not scrap, wants a door and a dog leg repair! How old is the car? What's its value? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, looks f**k all, but that's the prices I've been getting, it's a 2005 320d m sport, value wouldn't have a clue but after looking around mines I think in pretty good nick.
