Delivery video is up! What a fantastic day at BMW Seattle!

I see you are getting the Kies charge pipes (cold side). May want to consider the Mishi charge pipes for the hot side.

Done and on there way.. thank you for the reminder and somehow I just spaced on those. The hot side has to come out for the rest of the intercooler and heat exchanger anyway, so just get it done all at once.

I will probably go with this after stage 2 is completed (will be easier to convince the boss that its for our safety, and we can use the M240 to take dogs to the vet and when we may need a backseat).

BMW DIY Guy · 10-27-2023, 09:03 AM

Dang.. didnt realize I had fallen behind here, so getting caught up:

Wheel caps

Door Sills

Arm rest upgrade

BMW DIY Guy · 10-31-2023, 05:39 PM

Here are some current photos, after a wuicl wash. PPF hopefully next week.

ronin13013 · 10-31-2023, 07:20 PM

BBS are beautiful!!

mattleegee · 11-07-2023, 02:13 AM

Very nice! Love the DIY videos

IND-Distribution · 11-07-2023, 11:27 AM

Great thread, keep them coming!

BMW DIY Guy · 11-08-2023, 11:53 AM

Ok next up as the BBS wheels are getting prepped for install, plus protecting the OEM wheels as well. Ceramic coating isn't hard and I feel is absolutely worth it.

mtenhoven · 11-22-2023, 07:07 AM

Anxiously awaiting your IND painted center bumper trim install video. Any ETA?

Actually been working on videos like a madman the last few days to get caught up. That one is shot and done and needs to be uploaded. It will probably be a couple of weeks as there is some content I have to get out first.

BMW DIY Guy · 11-22-2023, 09:22 AM

Fresh content up last week and more coming today!
