What have you done to your car today?

Hi Folks

I changed my Alloys to MV1's and you can see the calipers a lot more, so my wife decided that i was painting them Cadbury's Pearl Purple :thumbsup:

Picked up car from aduio installer. Aftermarket BT interface fitted, phone, contacts, SMS, A2DB etc, all through iDrive and steering wheel controls. Doesn't look like it can show track info but if that's the worst problem I'll take it as a win. :)

I'm hoping driving it will sort that a wee bit, they are pretty new, but the car is garaged just now

Didn't have time when I got it home last night, will try to get something today before I put the boot carpet back in, as well as grab some pics of the iDrive menus in case anyone else is interested in this option.

Discovered a small frog trying to sneak a ride in the passenger door handle

Well that’s a new one. I think here we only get spiders... but will keep an eye out for any frogs from now on too!!

That’s not rust, it’s dairy milk.
 
I changed the plugs in the 3.0 E89 today. Removed what looks to be the original BMW branded NGK plugs. 61000 miles. The color was good on all but the electrode was visibly shorter than new. I put Bosch in it. Looking forward to going for a drive.
Took delivery of a box of Bilstein B4s all the way around too. I may be trying to get the rears on this evening using my biddies lift. :thumbsup:
 
Went for a drive motor runs smooth. Put the car on the lift and changed the rear shocks with Bilstein B4. Short but nice ride home. Hope to get the front struts on soon.

Those are really cool 8) very subtle, but effective.
