    Agreed, seemed like an odd space not being screened in from the get go. Grilling out is gonna be even better. 

    From the moment we moved in we knew this had to be screened in.  I'm excited for the late night bourbon tasting I can do without bugs now!

    Just needed to adopt the southern attitude and throw some couches under that bad boy. 

    Looks good screened in!

    Hahaha!  I suggested a couch out there and that was quickly shot down and I was called a redneck.

    nice work, did you make it easy to replace the screens? your kid (or dog?) is gonna break one probably in a week. 

    A week lol?  Literally the same day I put the screens up, before I had even finished every section, my dog went through not one, but two screens within an hour!  She's a 60lb pitbull and so stupid but we lover her.  She's now terrified to go near the screens and keeps her zooming to the rest of our yard.  My son has been great about it and hasn't put anything threw a screen yet.  The screens were stapled and done in sections and to replace a screen is as simple as remove the finisher boards held on with finishing nails then spread the screen.  A router would have made the screens easier to install but alas I did not have one.

      Finally took these out of the garage after collecting dust for 9 months. I feel like they transformed the car pretty well (dont judge the weird camera angle🤣)

      Now to continue the search for some msport bumpers

      BMW center caps are on order also

          Wow, that's cheap for both bumpers!  It'll probably cost about the same to wrap the whole car as it would to prep and paint the two bumpers.

                          I knew it was only a matter of time till someone figured out how to manual swap a 335d, that is so cool. Even cooler that the whole setup is in an e91!

                              Legitimately thought it was Wednesday today. Didn't realize until I was searching through my email and saw that under the "Yesterday" heading, "Wednesday" was listed.

                                  I was also operating under the assumption that it was wednesday until maybe 3pm today. It's been slow at work, so I've been been wasting a lot of time. I still haven't figured out what I did on what days and how it could possibly be Thursday. Oh well. I still feel fortunate that I have a job that allows me to get out of the house, even if that means being in a building with ~40-50 other germ-bags 5 days a week.

                                        It does feel like everyday is just the same except for the occasional two days I don’t have to open my work laptop. However, my 5 foot commute and getting out of bed 1 minute before I’m supposed to sign on is a lot better than my 100 mile round trip daily commute.
