      He didn't want to be associated with me so he said "a co-worker". I can't blame him.

            Love it! I keep toying with the idea of getting an E92 M3. The induction noise of the S65 is enough to make me weak in the knees

              This right here is why it's one of my favorite motors!

              Anyways Welcome and Congrats! You'll love the M3 even more come summertime.

                Debating what to do about window tint. I'm either going to do 20% or 35% but can't decide. I had 20% on the Subie and got 2 points and a ticket for it a few years ago so I had it redone with 35% and no issues since.

                Also not sure about the front plate. I might just take it off and get some painted plugs for the holes. Either that or keep it legal and just add an OEM plate frame to dress it up a little bit. Any thoughts?

                  Get rid of the front plate. F the police. Front plates look like shit. As far as tint I think my e92 are 35% they were allready tinted when I bought it. It seems to look classier then the dark 20%. Kinda what I am debateing on with my e30 windows. Oh yea by the way...love the M3 and that blue doe. E92 M3 is still out of my reach. But someday

                    Thanks, the blue was one of the factors that sealed the deal for me :). Keep your eyes peeled man! Since the M4 release, E92 prices have dropped pretty substantially. Lots of folks are getting out of leases now too so the market is pretty broad. I thought it was out of my reach too but after some digging I was surprised to find that a nice low-mileage E92 can be had in the low-mid 30s. If you're patient and don't mind searching nationwide, they are an incredible value!

                      I have the "no front plate" trim piece on my e36 and have never been bothered about it but I live in a small town.  If it looks smooth it is much less noticeable that it is missing.

                          No front plate on the E30 or E90 (or previous cars for that matter) - never had an issue.

                              Fancy seeing you here, Mitch. I thought I remembered you on this site during class, lol!

                              Yeah, BMW ended up being the way to go. Not many other options with a V8 and a 6MT... I'm hoping to supercharge it in a few years so that'll make it even better :D .

                                      Welcome.  You actually got a 2 point ticket for the tint??  Hmmm.....I've been given warnings and fix-it tickets a few times for my 20%, but never a point ticket.

                                      I was pulled over by a state trooper on 41 around Appleton area and got a warning for no front plate, 7mph over the limit, too dark tint, too low, and illegal exhaust.  The officer was very nice.....but still wrote up everything possible.

                                        Yeah, it was about 3 years ago in menomonee falls. I pulled it off, went to the police station and showed them to get the points and ticket revoked, then re-tinted, lol.

                                          Looks like I won't be removing my front plate. The two main holes I can get plugs for but there's not much I can do about the rest. The small ones are not even drilled all the way through. The whole area is covered in a clear bra so I wouldn't even be able to touch up the small holes. Oh well I guess.
