[kamotors]

So I'll be at bimmerfest this weekend, I'll be in my 740i since the e30 won't be ready.

Should be lots of fun!

Hope to meet some of you guys.

OK so got the itbs synced at about 1500rpms at full operating temp. For some reason one cylinder pulls less vacuum, but only bring able to adjust in pairs means I can do anything about it.

Made a quick video, no longer sounds like a helicopter, has a normal lopey idle now.

Guys need some advice, we got my brothers car back from paint and we noticed the front spoiler was crooked but today we decided to fix it thinking the body shop was just lazy but we discovered they hit something with car, destroyed the oem valance and then repaired and glued the ACS front lip on crooked and put screws all over it then bondo's and painted over it. What can I do? They clearly are at fault but how do I prove it and get them to fix it?

do you have any proof of what it looked like before? You might be SOL. I would for sure talk to whoever is in charge, but I wouldnt expect much to happen. sucks

I always take photos, so yes these were taken right as it was installed, clearly no damage to either valance or ACS lip

thats a really dodgy repair.. SLAPPED together job

If you used a credit card file a disputed and withhold payment. As long as you have pics before delivery the shop is screwed and has to address the problem to your satisfaction. Sometimes it's an employee that screws up with the owner unaware. You never know, just get your evidence straight and force the issue, preferably with a neutral party as intermediary

[kamotors]

Well they are fixing the ACS valance for free but what a hack job. Had to uncover all there hidden screws. They hit something pretty good

Tough balance between clearing booster or hitting hood, but nothing a spacer, dremel and hammer couldnt fix....

How much did you end up spacing it? I ended up with .25" on the driver side mount.

About an 1/8th inch maybe a little bit more

I ninja edited, there was lots of squish when I tightened it. Just looking for a sanity check.
