New build! E90 M3

New parts are always exciting. The Carly app is cool, a lot of features.

I also had an experience with one of these. There was one parked out-front of a business when myself and a few friends were hanging out last weekend. We eventually found the owner of it inside. So we started talking to him about it and he offered us a ride. Keep in mind I had just met this guy dont know his name or anything. So we thought to ourselfs 4kids VS 1 Stranger and we took him up on his offer. It was black with the auto trans. Long story he did a bunch of pulls and drifted around the city of EC. His car alarm went off shortly after so we found him again and told him. He ended up giving spider some jumper cables out of his appreciation. It was one hell of a time. Love that car.

I think my favorite part about this, is how excited you are to be able to share the car with your wife! That’s so awesome.
Wish Rolls was like that [emoji102]
I really need a ride in this thing when we get the chance. Every time I brought the idea of purchasing one of these to Mitch I was always immediately talked out of it lol. Sounds so good!!

My lifes been a little nuts lately between work and trying to find a new house while getting ours ready to sell but i've had time to drive the car and fall even more in love with it! Being able to drive with the windows open makes the driving experience so much better. I have never owned a car that gets so much attention from random people. I have had to explain to my wife that an M3 isn't really something seen every day, especially in our area. I did have a chance to order a few minor mods and install two! I have a set of led angel eyes just waiting for me to install them. Without further ado here is the most boring upadate ever. I installed the BMW Performance black grille and painted side markers. Done.

Might be boring but at the end of the day it makes the car look SO much better.

Another boring update! I swapped in my Ziza led angel eyes on Sunday in between mothers day events. I love them! This singular upgrade freshens up the e90 front end and makes it look current. Now I just need to code out my corners and i'm good!

vury nice!
Aww thanks!

whats next on the wishlist?
I was looking at E9X m3 mods and almost none of them are cheap, but its also not an E30 and doesnt need a lot of mods to be awesome either
Next up is a thorough cleaning! I haven't had anytime to really clean it and my wheels are getting filthy! But as far as purchased stuff goes I think a lip is up next but I'm torn between a lip and a set of springs. I just can't get away from the low life! I started a wish list on ECS and it has 8 items that total a little over $3300... Some of that stuff is more for reference like the front lip and rear diffuser. Those alone are $1400 but i'm not stupid enough to spend that money. I'll go ebay or some knock off for that stuff.
Looking good, your first two mods are the same first two things I did to mine! Good taste! I didn’t even make it back from my 30 hour trip and I had to make a quick stop at work to throw my grilles in, in the middle of a snow storm
Thanks! Great minds think alike!

I had to fix my first thing on the M3 tonight! I was leaving one of my shops and noticed some liquid under the car so I stuff my finger in it and smelled it hoping it was condensation from the AC I don't use. No such luck, it was coolant. I popped the hood and it appeared to be coming from the bleeder screw so I grabbed a flat head to tighten it and *snap* it came right off! I grabbed an EZ out and extracted the rest of the plastic screw then shoved another bolt in it so I could get home. I found a dorman part at Autozone so I picked it up for $5 and turns out I had 2 in the box. Score! Bonus parts! I got home and threw the first screw in, *snap*! I broke the first one. Extracted it, put the 2nd one in VERY gingerly and filled it back up with coolant. It was only down about half a quart. I let it run for about 15 minutes and no leaking. After some looking it appears to be a common problem so it looks like an aluminum screw is the next upgrade.
As a side note, the whole time I kept hearing Earls voice in my head mocking me about how I said the cooling system on the N54 and newer are rock solid and how i've trumpeted the reliability of the S65... then a $5 part in the cooling system breaks. Damn you @Earl!

The culprit

this is the most common part to break on BMWs since about 1995

Yep, I've dealt with that a handful of times on various cars.
I too got two screws in one box at Oreilly. Must be a common thing.
