How's the shifting? I saw some on Amazon i think it people gave reviews that it hits the steering wheel which makes it hard to shift....

Same here lol. Big bill to swallow so I hope their quality and fitment is amazing. Install should be straight forward since they just stick on over the stock trim pieces. I wonder if they look like they're stuck on or if the edges are flush somehow.

2021 x3 40i. Got an estimate today on a Jl audio amp plus a 10 in jl audio sub.
Unfortunately the amp is back ordered. Plan to tap into the under seat sub output. Hoping no speaker engine sounds are amplified.

Speed bumps are probably the most noticeable as being smoother and not so jarring when first hitting the speed bump, especially the plastic ones that aren't a smooth hump. I have really done any launches or anything yet as I really haven't had the chance, will have to try and give it a go to see if it feels any different due to the extra grip. The tires themselves fill out the wheel well a little more now and it almost gives the car the look that it's lowered because the fender is closer to the tire now.

Overall I like the way they look and behave so far. Wish I had a dragy to compare and have some fun.

put some 45mm OEM BMW wheel center emblems on my new snow shoes. Had a really had time finding something that would fit - the hub is ~2mm smaller than the 68mm OEM wheel centers so a sticker on the winter Enkeis does the trick.

Indeed i noticed, the smooth shifting is gone,
I now need to pull just a little bit harder, and sometimes I forget

I’m going to try to do some measurements and take some pickture over the weekend.
I’m sure it’s just a fraction of a millimeter but still, i feel/notice it

Please be aware, the peddles touch the steering wheel just a fraction of a millimeter so you will notice that the car sometimes doesn’t shift.
You can easily correct this by pulling just a tiny little bit harder. It's definitely some getting used to, but still very doable

Going to take some pictures from the back over the weekend to analyze

Went to pick it up from the dealer today after they updated my software in attempt to fix the laggy CarPlay issues only to discover this soon as I got in. 😂😂

So I left it there another day or however long it takes to swap clusters. What a fun last 10 day it's been. With the speeding ticket last week and now this. All because of a 2 second delay when changing tracks I didn't like lol. Oh well could be worse. Happy Friday everyone.

I went with this one for armrest tray since it doesn't have a logo on it. Works great to give more storage options in there. Obviously reduces the height of things you can store in there, but if its small things it works great.

I added coolant as I got the dreaded "low coolant" message in the idrive this morning. Appointment booked for this coming week to check that and the dreaded 55mph shake on early 2018s

Got the BMW glasses case and added adhesive strips so it attaches to the headliner.
