        thanks man! Some of the cracks have resurfaced, but for the most part the filler worked as expected.

          Was looking all over for 50mm OEM centercap stickers for my winter wheels (Axis OG San wheels), but the closest thing i could find were these 45mm OEM ones made for E21 wheels i believe? They are a little small, but they work.



          10mm ECS Tuning spacers w/ extended lugs came in yesterday to clear my calipers w/ the winter wheels.


          And these are the wheels mounted (pics taken last yr when i got them).

                    Thanks man! ironically enough, this iX lived most of its' life near Waterbury CT.....I purchased it from up there :o

                    It was serviced at Ridgefield BMW of CT until 2008 (where it was originally purchased).

                    I bought it in Waterbury.

                          thx fellas!

                          Just threw on a Colgan bra last night since all my highway driving is doing a # on my front end.....esp w/ the winter coming up (eg salt etc). I thought i was gonna hate this bra, but the thing fits like a GLOVE....i actually like it a lot.




                          and i purchased my 1st BMW article of clothing. Now i feel like a complete douche....lol Puma BMW Motorsport hoodie
