I am agonizing over the fact that my car will not be completed until a week after I brought it in.

They better finish it soon!

I went with the people that do a lot of BMWs. I would rather have it done right and take a little longer, just had to rant. They were in the process of installation on Wednesday after painting on Monday. They said that they have to buff, etc. Why do they have to buff, I wondered if he meant just the bumper? I am the only one who details my car.

Nelson..Can you give me the names of the BMW enthusiasts who did your wheels at DT in east Orlando?

I should be ordering my 166s here in a couple of months and tires at the end of the year. I was also thinking of going to Ultimate Audio or Orlando Auto Specialists to have them do the install, but if your guys are good that will save me some cash. Can I drop ship tires there from tire rack? Tire racks are cheaper.

Anyhow thanks for the positive comments. Will post some pics when done.
