I like the wheels as well. Great deal you found! How is the short shifter working? Notice a big difference? What is CDV and UUC?

Several models of BMWs with 5-speed or 6-speed manual transmissions have a Clutch Delay Valve (CDV) installed by the factory. This valve is the culprit behind the jerky shifting that makes your BMW hard to drive, even if you have been driving a standard transmission all your life. When replaced with the Zeckhausen Racing modified CDV, your clutch is suddenly transformed into the smooth, easy to modulate clutch that should have been delivered from the factory as standard, ($35).
The short shifter is O.K., there is a difference, not a huge one, ($355). The company that makes the short shifter kit, motorwerks, used to use the initials UUC which stands for Underground Upgrade Club.
Installation for both $175.

NOT until I have the front mudflaps removed. A person can only take so much criticism!
