I know Alex I agree there are so many setups. I can't wait for your akra Exhaust. Like
I mentioned before all setups have pros and cons. For me this is satisfying. For now

Akra is coming in two weeks. I'll have a high flow, catted ER downpipe/catless, resonated Akra midpipe/valved Akra muffler.

Setup Sounds Mega good. It's like buying a suit in combo with shirt and tie. It's endless.

After months of waiting, finally got my carbon shifter paddles. Definitely longer than stock, and I no longer have problems reaching the shifters from a 2 10 position or while turning the wheel. These shifters are exactly where I need them to be and look great to boot!

Just picked her up and all I got to say is dayuuum. I love how she looks not to mention drove her back and she's definitely riding better. Day and night difference.
Lowered on H&R springs 12mm spacers all around and Pirelli scorpion zero plus all seasons. 265/40/21 in front and 295/35/21 in rear.

Nice, bro! Love the look. Black wheels on toronto red look awesome and love the red wrapped v-brace!

That looks good.
Somehow all the pictures are sideway from the computer.

I was about to say that it looks good sideways.

I'm a sucker for red so close to those M buttons, but it's nice to have options!

Yea the v-brace wrap looks great and is next on my list.

I've got Dark Graphite so gonna wrap in blue which will hopefully be somewhat of a match to the calipers.

yeah I think im taking it back for red calipers as well. The blue will definitely pop if you do vbrace to match brakes.

Have been running winter tires since I picked up the car in December, 255/45/20, 285/40/20 Scorpians, https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showp...4&postcount=41. Decided to go with all seasons for my "rest of year" tires. I live in the mountains and it can snow in May. I like my winter wheels, so wanted the same for my 3 season set. They only come in 20s and 22s. I went all in and bought the 22s, 9/22 +32, 10.5/22 +35, with Scorpian all season plus 265/35/22, 295/30/22 (no rubbing). Weight of wheels and tires is about the same as stock 20s with pzero's. Pics below. Another beautiful day in the PNW.

You've got an odd definition of fun. Watching and rewinding a YouTube videos 5x to try and figure out the "trick" to releasing that airbag was anything but fun. The provided black and white instructions were horrible at explaining the location of the hidden spot in the leather you have to perforate with your screwdriver. Then once you do find the spot, you've gotta fish around inside until you hit the lever to release the airbag. Once I figured it out on one side, the other went pretty fast. But getting it right on that first one was anything but my definition of fun... Hahaha. Still, it was well worth the upgrade, and I never would have paid someone to do an upgrade as easy as this. That said, it did require me to sand some lacquer off the inside of the left shifter to get it to return to position after depressing it. They should have better quality control for the price. Seems like I recall someone else here who got them complaining of the same problem.

Yea, I have been planning to make a video on how to do it.
But it will be hard to capture, since most of the process on airbag removal is by feeling that you are pushing the spring.
I recently noticed that excess clear coat too and I mentioned it to AutoTecknic already.

Thanks! Good idea, but I'll prob swing by next week or something.

I'm actually doing minor tinkering now lol... nothing special, just test mounting the dash cam with the mount from the F80 ��

[Will Pwr]

With less than 24 hours of ownership, I'm already tinkering... wanted to see if the Blendmount for the BlackVue from the F80 would work on the F97. I think it will suffice 🤔

That's do-able.
Now you are giving me an idea to do the same.
