hi guys, i didnt wanna start different threads but have few thing i wanna talk about
first of all I got a coolant Too low warning today, I check the coolant a month ago and the dipstick was all the way up. So i am kinda worried, i dont see any coolant under the car but i doubt i would with all the under covers. So should i have it inspected. The car only has 35K miles and i doubt the previous owner did regular maintenance.
Second I am doing some exterior mods
M5 bumper
M5 Sides
Mtech/Diffuser rear bumper
What is the best material except ABS. Umnitza bumpers are made of PolyPropylene, is polyurethane better as far as strength and fitment?
Now to wheels
I am getting Avant Garde M310 19's with hankook v12 tires. What do u guys think of them? I do have sport package and love the smooth yet sporty ride. I would not wanna put coilovers, unless they offer similar ride.
ECU tuning,
Singh tuning in Nor cal has a tune for N52 engine, add 10-15whp. Anyone heard bad things about their tune? it cost around $545

yeah i sure do have a coolant leak, the passenger control arm is all wet, plus water spots under the car. The coolant expansion tank seems fine, is there any other hose by that area that could leak?
