I mean I don’t mind doing it myself even if I have to buy the material. But I know it has to go to the dealer so it gets recorded that it’s done.

Just let the dealer do it. Don't stress over it. If you don't want to wait till the end of January, call around, you can get it done with any BMW dealer.

Installed carbon fiber license plate and carbon fiber door handle covers.

Nah I know. I just like convenience. And their service dept is literally 6 miles from my house lol. 3 miles from work. I prefer to go to them lol

All shined up and had to put the snows back on for a trip to Breckinridge later this week.

chicagofan00 · 12-27-2021, 05:08 PM

Also got a new band for my Apple Watch to go along with the car.

Fuck, i forgot about that.

What premature mileage do most dealers accept for the break in?

Like can i call them up if i approach 1100 instead of near 1200?

I'm around 930 miles IIRC.

I would call your dealer now and ask them to order it because your projected date for 1200 is going to be in a couple of weeks.

Fuck! I forgot to ask them about checking stock on the fluids!!!

I mean i foresee some shitty weather the next week or so so i most probably won't be putting much miles. Maybe another 75 this weekend? I'm using my SUV to commute back and forth to work.

I should be ok at exactly 1200 miles by end of jan. Jan is supposed to be the start of shitty ass weather. I just hope my luck doesn't run short the morning i have to take the car in for service with the snow.

I ordered it from AliExpress. I was a bit skeptical when I ordered them. They were delivered in a month and the fitment is perfect. Best of all, its real carbon fiber. Since they only cover the front, I'm getting the back of the handles wrapped in vinyl tomorrow.

Took the car out on to the driveway, took some photos with the snow and rolled it back in. Winter tire installation is unfortunately only in January.

My friend is a tech at BMW so he has been saving back the diff fluid so I will be ok.

No longer sipping the Kool Aid -- you're gulping it!

Meanwhile, we just ordered a new garage mate for the M4. Jeep Wrangler market values are too high to resist reselling them, if they're not a long-term proposition. So when my dear spouse announced Christmas morning he was ready to return to the BMW fold, I jumped right on it. (The Jeep will have cost us <$150/month in depreciation.) X3 M40 is now on order!

ashtaron14 · 12-29-2021, 08:33 PM

Dropped off for the 2000km run-in check

WATCHMY6 · 12-29-2021, 09:07 PM

I found out it's at the port in Germany waiting to get on the boat… the build is done!!!!

Looks like they just stick to the handles, correct?

Mowe · 12-30-2021, 12:17 AM

Yes, they have like a 3M tape that you peel off before sticking them on.
