Hello

I've been looking around here for a while and I think it's finally time I say hello. Thanks to you guys I did a fair amount of research before ordering the car and while waiting for it. Thanks in advance for such a great site.

It's probably easier to list the options she doesn't have which are active stearing, parking sensors and Satelite radio. Everything else is here.

I have made a few mods, I'll post those in a bit.

Enough said, let's get to the pictures. Sorry for the ones with the bugs. I just took some quick shots and I had gone out the night before. Got love the North East in the spring. The first one is what BMW sent me as a welcome gift I guess.

Mods

Here's what I have so far:
OEM car alarm
OEM lower lip
Black front grills (centers only)
Lower black grills
Mud flaps
Wheel locks
Car matts
Door lock cover
Rear Spoiler
BMS filter
Smart Top
Winter tires (17s)
Amber-gone vinyl covers
Leather cover for fob
Shifter knob to match interior
OEM metal pedals
Plenty of Zaino
303 protectant on the inside
Klasse AIO for wheels
Windscreen

I think that's it for now. I'm thinking about an SSTT V2 (when it comes out) and a Helene filter.

Looks great!

Which wood trim is that - is it the light poplar? It looks sharp with the saddle.

I think he might be using a power washer with a foam gun attachment, maybe one of the detailers can chime in

Thanks everyone

Thanks for all of the kind words, I appreciate it.

That is the light poplar trim. Yes, I use a foam gun, another tip I got in the detailing forum here. It works awsome. That and a CRspotless machine and washing my cars is a joy.

The car has been absolutely perfect so far.

The car looks awesome.

Do you need anything special for the foam gun? Or will a regular hose work?

Thanks for the complements.

There are both types of foam guns. The one I use does require a pressure washer, I had one so it was no big deal. There are other types that work with a hose. I believe the general concensus is that the ones that require a pressure washer work better. You can visit the wash, wax and detailing forum for more info.

Car looks great.

Did you paint the verticle slats of the kidney grills yourself? Rattle can?

I hope so. I actually just purchased it two days ago and it's been raining here so I haven't had a chance to give it a shot. I'll post again as soon as I try it.

From what I've read people are happy with it, I believe it stops the small amount of wind that comes from the back of the car when traveling at highway speeds.
