Swapped the summer tires onto the daily, and changed the oil.



Also changed from winter to summer tires on my dad's Accord too, lol. And I helped Santofu change his oil pan gasket and 2 O2 sensors for him yesterday, with the help of entrax. OK, maybe entrax did most of the work and all I did was change the sensors and hold the oil pan up :P

It can't be done with the projectors I have.
There's not enough space within the housing to work with.

The only way I see it happening is with custom base brackets and a lot of trimming of the main housing. Not worth it.

So I had my good friend Mike @ Performance One in Richmond swap grilles on my f01 750i, love the new LCI grille because it looks so much cleaner.

Swapped out the winters for the summer tires/wheels on the M3 followed by:
Corner balance
Adjust toe, camber, compression, and rebound

Dat ///M handling

Oh, and I bought whole bean organic coffee and bananas from Whole Foods and let the aromas waft in the cabin of the car.

Got all my rear suspension arms back into the subframe, for some reason the passenger side went together no problem but the drivers side was a pain in the ass. Nothing a big hammer can't fix

At risk of sounding stupid, I don't see any difference?

There are less vertical slats. Looks more aggressive that way.
