Patton 250, I should of kept reading through the posts. I see you posted it and answered my question. Sorry!

A drive from Hereford to Chepstow - some beautiful English country roads, stopping for a quick photo opportunity at Tintern Abbey (2 week old M4 versus an abbey built in 1131 AD)

Car hasn't had its RIS yet so kept it below 4K rpm but still had plenty of low down torque to get past the slowbies

No worries man. Thanks. I love the thing also. It’s expensive but I’m going to start making the engine compartment look awesome like the rest of the car. Why not?

That seems off brand for Texas as West coaster. I would have thought that's the type of thing they wouldn't care about.

I finished installing my xxii inlets and the aforementioned 290 dollar Turner skid plate. That skidplate is a pain in the ass to install but I do like the coverage on the sides and that it is a no drill install. I also threw some mesh on the inlets to match the mesh I'm going to put on my vorsteiner grill.

Agree. Love the e9x. Going to acquire one next.
I have one. Drove it today. Smiled a lot. Sounds soooo good. Never selling mine.

Received two verbal warnings and one written warning during the stops.

No front plate in small Texas towns is also a magnet for getting stopped at night.

I like that mesh, and wish something similar had been done from factory. Got a link for where you got it from?

I used their guide exactly. The 6x36 mesh will take care of you with some to spare. If you have an aftermarket grill coming the next size up will do both the ducts and the grill. All I used was the matte black mesh, a set of cheap snips, a sheet metal seamer and automotive goop.

What did I do to my G80 today? I called my dealer, the GM, the Genius, and BMWNA to get an explanation for why my car has been sitting at the VPC in Baltimore for going on the 10th week.
