    hm, i don't think this is spray paint but more like a paint where you brush it on. i'll be getting it from www.leatherique.com.

              It was good seeing you Mike, I hope the parts help you get the M3 up and running.

              I am up and heading to Hunting Beach for the car show. I hope to see some of you there.

              Cheers,

                  Where's the meet?

                  Intended on changing oil yesterday, ended up changing spark plugs and valve cover gasket (pain in the ass to source). Never did get around to oil...

                    I'm looking to get a re spray and some body work as well in brillianttrot, I would go to the guy up north but it's too far. Let me know if you find a place.

                      To the guys looking for paint work; hit up "Archie", he apparently has a guy on the cheap. That guy painted his M3 a couple of years ago and he's in O.C., might be worth a shot.

                        Nice! I might have to do that when I get my new car. A few I'm looking at are in desperate need of paint.


                        On a side note, fück my current job. They cut back my hours after my accident. Only working like 7 days this month. Pretty sure what they did was illegal. But luckily I got my app in with the dealership and I got to see where that takes me.

                          Good work sir! Parts are easy to source though. Use BMA. ;)

                            My steering is really really sloppy. There's a ton of play in the wheel plus when I change directions, turning it from one side to the other, there's this weird knock/click. Just once per direction change. What's causing this click and how do I tighten up my steering?

                              I'd definitely have ordered from BMA if it wasn't so last minute.
                              Would have saved a headache and a lot of running around!

                                Check the tie rods, for any leaks in the rack, the guibo and/or u-joint looking thing on the steering rod that goes up in to the firewall...I suspect it's the last thing that has gone poo.
