              Too young to be a R3V OG. Too old to get TikTok famous boofing ZYNs.

              Just the right age to fuck around with my shit box cars, and spew bullshit to old heads on an outdated car forum.

                  F30s are repairable? I thought all of the repair trees on modern BMWs were designed to lead to buying a new BMW if there is an issue?

                    Well, that seems right. The diff doesn't even have a drain hole, luckily the transmission does.

                      Domestics were way ahead on that one, apparently they've been making disposable stuff since forever.

                          Am I reading correctly that the value of a single wire within the harness is valued at $802? I'd be contesting that. That's just straight up highway robbery, or someone messed up the paperwork declaring what was in the package.

                            The invoice was for 2 line items: the harness and the ECU. Looks like Im getting hit with Tarriffs on the full value of each item within the line so like one wire and one connector (no idea if thats what it is, just guessing) is being charged the full values' tariff... and also this was AFTER the Tarriff were ruled illegal... so fuckin annoyed right now

                              It looks like they're hitting you with multiple tariffs on the same item. I was under the impression that an item would fall into a single category in the HTS, and you get charged for that. Maybe you can speak to someone at UPS about it?
                              Harmonized Tariff Schedule

                              Also, once the Supreme Court struck down the individual tariffs, Trump imposed a universal 10% for all imported goods, then immediately raised it to 15%.

                                That's it. For whatever reason I saw the numbers on the left and instantly thought they were part numbers lol. If I'd actually read it, I would have noticed it says "Duty Class".
