I have had excellent service with Casey BMW. Had a couple of friends that had used Checkered, looked at their proposed invoice for repairs, advised them that it seemed excessive and they had Casey take a look. The quoted faults could not be identified and saved them several hundred dollars, and they are not stingy on loaner cars if the repair is going to take more than a day... Jason is my service writer and the dealership is not surprised when you bring your M3 in and it looks like you have been using it like a M3.

PPF and ceramic coatings I go to Richmond. All painted panels on my car have PPF on them, 8 mil or 10 mil according to location.

Sorry to hear about the crash, but looks like you moved into another great M car.

I live in Hickory Chesapeake, always doing drives out here, so hit me up whenever.

A mod day, cruise or general meet up with local Ms would be fun. FISH22 has a barn that is the perfect place to work on a car, and he has the know-how to back it up. I plan to swap out my OEM front brake pads for some lower dusting ones in his barn at some point this month, and would be down to help anyone else that has a project as well.

That’s right! Good times here at BarnWerks.

I’m OCD when it comes to wrenching on cars, so you’re in good hands.

I'd enjoy come down to help out...

Welcome! You kinda have my car's twin as I also have a M4 in BSM w/Fiona. So naturally, I think your car looks great! What part of the Hampton Roads area are you living in again?

That would be pretty cool to have like a Richmond/Hampton Roads G8X meet up. We definitely need more M gatherings around.

This would be great. Maybe something in Williamsburg? About the halfway point for most of us? Probably drive some great roads too.

Shawn_M3 2023 · 01-18-2023, 06:37 AM

I’d be down for a meet as well! I’m in Richmond but wouldn’t mind traveling if the day works out

vbb · 01-18-2023, 07:01 AM

Williamsburg meet sounds great, and we can drive the Colonial Parkway then grab lunch at Pierce's BBQ. I did a meet like that way back in my S2000 days and it was a great time. Pete, not sure if you were there or not?

Anyway, let's plan it!
