The tinted tails and euro plate filler flow so well together on light coloured cars/black trim. esp with the e28 MT! wing :up:

the left one

[xwill112x]

ordered a wheel bearing today, and i installed a 318 style front valence clip in. I had the 325i oil cooler vent style in it before.

the left one

Shouldn't it be the right one? When you put more load on the bearings they make more noise if they need replacing. A hard right turn will relieve the right side of load. Sounds like the right one to me.

No, A right turn will compress the left bearing and tighten it up, thus making it quite. A left turn will separate the bearing and make it howl more.

It is the left bearing
