e9nines place of employment is not too far away from mine. He works in a town where I lived for 17 years.
Given his proximity to where I live now, it was only a matter of time before he and I met.
I had originally recomended my local MIDAS shop to get a new catalytic converter installed. My initial impression was that they seem a good place to deal with and the fact that the manager / owner is also a BMW enthusiast helps.
Unfortunately, they were not able to install e9nines cat yesterday as they would have to work up some custom tubing to replace the stock one with a much shorter catco high flow unit. e9nime however had them install his new Yokohama es100s on his new 15x7 BBS RZ wheels.
Man o man, those wheels look great and the Yokes look impressive as well.
We all know what happens when a minimum of two car enthusiasts get together. First of its always hard to leave the parking lot and once you get talking 3 hours feels like 5 minutes. Fortunately there is an Applebees nearby.
E9nine, it was a sincere pleasure meeting you. I look forward to future meetings.
Here are some pix I took.
My favorite.

My second favorite.
