On oem plastic bumpers, what's the metal thingy underneath them like where the tow hook is? Rear bumper valence/skirt right? The exact name escapes me.

[Vivek]

^Valance.

I fucking hate working on cars omfg. Making my exhaust sit straight and not touch the rear valance (=constant rattling) is such a bitch to do.

Whine is gayyyy

[Vivek]

Is this on your new diff that you bought?

[cmybimmer]

yuppp

[Bimmerman325i]

tried to install my exhaust on thurs night-- installed the shorty headers just fine but was missing the exhaust hangers for the AA 3" so ended up driving back from milpitas to PA with just a resonator. Obnoxiously loud car is obnoxious, cannot wait to get the hangers.

[Vivek]

yuppp

Damn. I'm assuming you bought it without knowing about that issue, right?

[cmybimmer]

Yeah, and the guy didnt get to put it on his e30 during his possession of it.. I took the risk since it was pretty cheap but still suckss

[Vivek]

Oh then you can't really blame him. I almost got a set of wheels, but I was too nervous to do it without running them since the owner had never even run it. How much did you pick up the diff for?

[cmybimmer]

Yeah I have a bad habit of trying my luck when I have a feeling its not going to end well..

Picked it up for $60

[golde30]
