black calipers rims are just around the corner!! got some great news today and hopefully they get shipped by the end of this week. hopefully i will have them by next friday. so im getting the calipers done ASAP. Black painted calipers with maybe some white bmw stickers.

 

My car tends to idle rough during intial morning startups. It goes away after 45-60 seconds. It is a little annoying, but not worth my time to schedule a trip yet. Please share the outcome. I was thinking of doing the MAF cleaning, but again, it just isn't bothing me that much yet.

 

I see a DIY coming

and, dam, girl, you're all kindsa fun, ain't ya? I got mad respect for how much love and care you put into your car!

Lastly, I think Black calipers with white sticker will look gorgeous! In line with your whole theme.

 

we'll do.


on a side note does anyone know where to buy some stickers that people have put on their calipers? i searched "painted calipers" looked through a few threads but cant find them yet. help appreciated

 

Oh, I just thought of smth... I know you've been looking for a body kit or a front lip. I was gonna do this a while back, but ended up going with the CF lip, but you can totally do this - get an ACS rep lip and paint the upright dividers of the side air vents black - if you're having a hard time imagining what I'm talking about, I can prolly put together a rough photoshop for you - just to give you an idea of what I mean... I think it'll look hot with your theme of B&W

 

i kind of understand but am a visual learner if you have free time and dont mind give it a try.

 

Oh, the things we do for love

here you go (and this is really crappy graphics, ok - don't look at the finished quality - just try to envision the idea):

 

i've seen this in other cars where the forward o2 sensor was bad, and not heating up properly.

 

That is pretty funny!!

 

I was considering the lip you have or the acs front, quite like the idea you mentioned with the upright dividers.... hmmmm

Sorry to thread jack
