    Just finished test fitting my freshly refinished style 5's on the m3, gonna need a serious roll in the rear. I'll post pics tomorrow when its not dark out.

    Anyone have access to a fender roller? Baseball bat method isn't working at all.

      Skateboard wheel between the tire and fender, if you are desperate. Jack the car up a tad with the jack parallel to the car and pick it up a bit, put the skateboard wheel between the fender and tire, lower slowly so you see the wheel start to push the fender out, heat the metal, push the car forward and back, lower car a tad more and repeat. Or do it the proper way

          Took a few pics, replaced my rear strut mounts with e46 vert mounts, and removed the springs pads and spring adjusters in the rear after I took pics. It doesn't look low but she is only about 3" from the ground to the bumper.

          Looks good to me!!

              I did oil change and brake pads. Next is spark plugs.

              Look at the filter!! Any of you guys agree with me on my guess... BMW doesn't change filters.

              They recommended me 15k per oil change!! I just did it 4k after last dealer free lol oil change. Looks like they left the old filter or used tar instead of oil.. Lol

                                thanks guys! no, they are not refinished yet and definitely need it when I get the chance. i plan on putting on some other Alpina goodies to finish the theme: mtech 1 rear spoiler, alpina b6 front spoiler, and steering wheel badge. i wont do the side graphics, but probably the appropriate ones for the front spoiler

                                          Didnt get to the A/C delete today, but I did clean up some of my extra parts (thanks Ben!) and prepped them for powder. Woot. I would post pics but my dad ran over the digital camera with his truck. Shucks.
