Where did you get the CF coil cover?

Check out ebay. I think they run around 120ish

Where did you get the CF coil cover?

I'm pretty sure Levent has one for sale.

Where did you get the CF coil cover?

Christmas present. I think they got it at BavAuto. Also comes with the fuel rail cover but space is tight at the firewall to make it work.

Heres mine.

Holy damn! Where in bmw hell did you get that pornographic strut bar?

And to the rest of you guys:
what do you use and how do you clean the engine plastics like the intake? I've tried everything and it looks like shit no matter what I do. Usually turns whiteish after I clean it and there's dust in the curners and stuff.

Use armoral interior wipes, looks like brand new.

How do you like those bavauto coils?

I was thinking about picking them up, notice any difference?

[2.5-12]

car runs like a champ, pulls hard. never really paid attention with the OEM coils, but the mid-range does feel a lot more like a TU M50 with the new coils.

I'd recommend them, at $250 a set. a bargain too.

[Jand3rson]

Here's a totally random question. What length and thread type of bolts do I need for mounting an M50 to an engine stand?

[Wishno87]

Same as m20. Take one of your four main tranny bolts to the hardware store and find a match.
